    We have a winner!

    Still, I'm left with a simple question: Is it possible the real target was Democratic presidential candidate John Edwards and not the two bloggers he hired? After all, the attacks consumed the campaign and at least temporarily put Edwards on the defensive.

    Definitely so. What I'm pissed off at these two clowns for is giving them the ammo to seriously hurt a really good man and candidate.
