Hair cuts , campaign funding in the hundred millions -
Does this not trouble people , I can tell you it troubles me .

Not to single out and pick on Edwards but really , deep down where common sense exists what does this tell you , what gut reaction does it boil up ?

For me it tells me if Edwards can be pushed and forced to find the best haircut because of bashing then it tells me he is weak in a certain way .

Also these enormous campaign funds tells me this is only about the money , only the money .

Is this what we really need , is this where our focus should be , do not we need people who will stand strong , go with their gut and simply support the people of this country .

1. There's nothing wussy about Edwards.
The man has suffered HUGE personal losses and difficulties. One cannot overstate how hard it is to keep a marriage together when a child is lost or when a spouse has a long term serious medical crisis. Not to mention he's got the gonads to go up against some of America's biggest corps and win. Nope, there's NOTHING wussified about Edwards.

As for it being all about the Benjamins -- money gets the grass roots going and buys the TV time and bandwidth. Money gets you the media attention -- and you CANNOT win without that.

As for the hair - look at him. The poor man was cursed with soft silky hair that grows right toward his face. I have the same hair. A whole can of hairspray and an hour in the bathroom and 20 minutes later it's just laying there like a dead squirrel looking like crap. Would that he was blessed with Joe Biden's hair that needs a comb and quick spritz for the TV camera's and POW - good to go all day. Leave the poor man alone -- he's got enough problems.

2.  I'm not saying he is a wuss .
I am refering to him in this manner , even though it may sound like this .

Look what happened to Kerry when he allowed his handlers to tell him to go hunting and change his entire tactic .

Edwards would do better to ignore these simplton assults and just do what he has set out to do and not be sidetracked . To me this is a huge mistake .

As far as the extreme funding this will all go to the very corrupt media who lie to us and hold back any real truth , this is not a good thing , it allows this to continue and become worse and it needs to stop .

3. God, I don't know...
I haven't been in a salon in at least four years. That regular grooming luxury bit the dust, and I get my haircuts from my kid who is an admin-not a cosmetologist. She'll say to me: Mom-you need a haircut? It's a risk and not free though--I get to clean the 1/2 bath top to bottom afterward-thank goodness it's small. Method to the motivation, heh? LOL. Everything's good though, no tipping required but she gets plenty of Mom's tips anyway well in advance of service. HaHa!

5. Edwards hair look the same to me
so why do you think he has been pushed?This hair thing is about like the one Britt Hume tod on Clinton, he said that Clinton had his plane pulled a side for a hair cut and told how long he was there, he was correct his plane was pulled over for 30 minutes for him to get a hair cut and then he flew on to another meting.Wasn't Hume fired over the lie. I think they also said it was a barber from Hollywood.
