The whole haircut story. . .
Feeds into the right's depiction of Edwards as not being manly enough to be president. Coulter's invocation of the "f" word was no accident. The right is setting Edwards up as the Democrats girly man, and the media is running with the slander, just as it ran with the Al Gore invented the Internet "story" and the John Kerry as francophile story. Anything that makes Democrats out to be weak and less than masculine seems to engage the mainstream media because, heaven forbid, it address the real and complicated issues facing the nation.
