The saga of Amanda Marcotte is a great educational tool to observe an aspect of American culture which has this country in a meltdown. Underdeveloped people in critical gatekeeper roles and how thier lack of depth and myopic life skills can lead to a major damages. Edwards did not deserve this yoyo on his watch, her lack of depth has harmed his campaign. She was a blogmaster who's only talent it appears is the ability to make excuses and cut and run.
The Marcotte syndrome embodies, arrogance, selective indignation and deflective victimhood .This self centered
focus at the expense of a greater good is a lethal condition today in America. It is running amok on the internet and in the blogsphere. It reminds me of people who get opportunities who are not worthy but becuase of custom and tradition( white males come to mind)they are place in critical roles across the spectrum..
I hope she will quickly be a forgettable footnote..
