JAMES LILEKS:

About the John Edwards choice I have nothing to say that hasn’t been said elsewhere, but I do find it amusing that these guys are all so steeeenking rich. You have a guy whose wife is worth a cool billion and another guy with several dozen million running on a platform of hiking taxes on people who make 200K. Class warfare, man!

Indeed. (But they’re backed by the little guy!) Jeralyn Merritt of TalkLeft, meanwhile, is horrified at the thought that Bush might replace Cheney, especially if the replacement is Rudy Giuliani: “Rudy? Our worst nightmare.” As a guy with gay roommates, though, I don’t think he really qualifies as “Ashcroft times ten.”
