Click here to visit the new home of Politics Daily!Did the Mainstream media's lack of followup in the Edwards/Hunter affair last November keep Edwards in the race and ended up kicking Hillary out? It was around then that the first Edwards rumors started kicking around. The mainstream media angle is my addition, but it's the logical conclusion to this thinking here exhibited by Howard Wolfson: "I believe we would have won Iowa, and Clinton today would therefore have been the nominee," former Clinton Communications Director Howard Wolfson told ABCNews.com. Clinton finished third in the Iowa caucuses barely behind Edwards in second place and ...
This is worse than I thought. Elizabeth Edwards has a statement:Our family has been through a lot. Some caused by nature, some caused by human weakness, and some most recently caused by the desire for sensationalism and profit without any regard for the human consequences.
