Gee, Cate Edwards DOES L:ove Her Father
It turns out that the thing about Cate Edwards supporting Hillary was just a 9-year-old’s sense of humor. It was a joke. But even if John Edwards’ daughter was in favor of someone else, I don’t get what the big deal was in the first place. It looks like Giuliani’s kids will almost certainly be voting for anybody else, and I don’t care about that, either. This may be perilously close to Father’s Day to be making this point, but what’s that old line? “No man is a hero to his valet.” Well, it seems to me that ought to go double for a man’s family.
I’ve always been a little dubious about the idea that every candidate has his family 100% behind him. They can’t all be right to offer that support; some of them should know better. In the case of a 9-year-old, I really don’t get it. She can’t vote, anyway.
