Who knew there was a mens vogue and it has political stuff. Nine pics of
Edwards taken by Annie Leibovitz just scroll through 1-9 on top of pic
http://www.mensvogue.com/business/slideshows/2007/06/john_edwards

An article on Edwards
http://www.mensvogue.com/business/politics/feature/articles/2007/06/john_edwards

And an article on Mudcat Saunders talking about himself and Edwards
http://www.mensvogue.com/business/politics/interviews/articles/2007/06/david_mudcat_saunders
Which has absolutely terrific quotes from Mudcat

"MEN'S VOGUE: Some people give Edwards grief because he's rich and he
wants to talk about the poor.

SAUNDERS: Oh, I've gotten that for sure. It's like Harry Truman said,
The president of the United States is the lobbyist for the regular
people." It drives me berserk when someone says that Johnny's a wuss
or something. Let me tell you something, John Edwards is one tough son
of a bitch.

MEN'S VOGUE: Did you have a fight with him or something?

SAUNDERS: No, I just know him. Look at his track record. He's born
poor as a church mouse. And his dad works up a little bit so by the
time he gets out of school, he's pretty much middle class even though
he didn't have much. So he decides he's going to earn a football
scholarship at Clemson University, so he goes down there and he's one
of these Rudy guys and he gets the absolute dog crap beat out of him.
The guy is quicker than a hiccup, he really is, but he weighed a
hundred and nothing and they beat the hell out of him. And he did that
for a year, and at the end of the year they said no scholarship is
coming, so he transferred to NC State. Then he starts his career as a
trial lawyer and he immediately takes on the biggest, toughest,
baddest legal firms in America and whips their asses taking up for
little people. You don't do that unless you're tough. And I will say
this: I'd hate to fight him cause you'd have to kill him, because he
would fight you to the last second. I want that toughness in my
president, because we can't win on a freakin' haircut."


You gotta love a guy named Mudcat.
