Why I had to quit the John Edwards campaign During my brief tenure as blogmaster for a Democratic presidential contender, I experienced the right-wing smear machine firsthand
  • Amanda

    Poor little anti-Catholic bigot wasn't allowed to be her vulgar feminist self in bad world of politics -- what a surprise!

    Does anyone know about North Carolina -- one of the least Catholic (and most anti-Catholic) states in the union? Where the dispensationalist evangelicals rail against the Devil Vatican and Satan Pope with as much bile as Amanda does? She was probably brought on by someone who thought that people felt that way all over the country.

    But those evangelicals don't like foul-mouthed termigants. Duh. Call them Neanderthal, but it's real, and they vote.

    As a lawyer, Edwards could argue over what evidence the jury could see. Major league. Big time. But politics ain't the courtroom, and, in the modern super-politicized world, anything goes.

    You were a "bad fit," Amanda. You can join all the rest of the collateral damage at the side of the road to Baghdad.
