  • Please explain

    Joan, I just saw you on Hardball. Now after Chris Matthews slimed Hillary by saying the only reason she is in politics is because Bill cheated on her (as if she wouldn't have been better off had he never been impeached???) it's hard to imagine how you could sit on his show without challenging that.

    But the real reason I'm writing is to beg you please, please tell salon readers why you are going along with the notion that the Democratic party nomination is a two person race. Why why why??

    Did you ever hear of John Edwards???

    ps. anonymously published letters just mean it's a pain in the neck to remember one's moniker. Anyone can make up any name so why should it matter if it's anonymous?
