It's obviously true and explains the strange move of coming out and announcing your wife has cancer despite the fact that it will have no bearing on John's run for the White House. In 2004, John Kerry and John Edwards trotted out the stem cell issue right after Christopher Reeve died. This is what they do.

It’s obviously true and explains the strange move of coming out and announcing your wife has cancer despite the fact that it will have no bearing on John’s run for the White House.

In 2004, John Kerry and John Edwards trotted out the stem cell issue right after Christopher Reeve died.

This is what they do.

I have plenty of sympathy for Elizabeth Edwards, but I don’t like people dragging their illness out so that they can push a political agenda and not be questioned for it.
