Seems I’m not the only one who has grown tired of John Edwards’s publicity-hound ways. Carter Wrenn of Talking About Politics quotes Will Patton, who nails it.
… but then old Will Patton raised an even tougher question, saying, If I was prosecuting this case I’d only ask John Edwards one question: If you wanted was to keep your affair a secret from your wife why on earth did you run for President?
Richard thought that over and said: He might not testify.
Mr. Patton snorted, You couldn’t keep that fellow off the witness stand with a shotgun.
Sad but true.
