Edwards Calls Coulter 'She-Devil'

Former Sen. John Edwards on Friday fired the latest round in his ongoing verbal feud with Ann Coulter, calling her a "she-devil" at a public event before quickly adding that he shouldn't engage in name-calling.
Edwards, D-N.C., was railing against the right-wing media -- including Fox News and Rush Limbaugh -- when he reminded a crowd in Burlington, Iowa, that his wife stood up to Coulter in a public spat earlier this summer.
"We know these people. We know their game plan. They're going to attack us personally," Edwards said. "They attacked Elizabeth personally, because she stood up to that she-devil Ann Coulter.
I should not have name-called. But the truth is -- forget the names -- people like Ann Coulter, they engage in hateful language."
In June, Coulter went on ABC's "Good Morning America" and said she had learned her lesson after being blasted for suggesting in a joke before the Conservative Political Action Conference that Edwards was a "faggot." "If I'm gonna say anything about John Edwards in the future, I'll just wish he had been killed in a terrorist assassination plot," Coulter said.
That prompted Edwards' wife, Elizabeth, to call in to MSNBC's "Hardball" and challenge Coulter directly. "I want to use the opportunity
to ask her politely to stop the personal attacks," Mrs. Edwards said.
The call left Coulter uncharacteristically flustered -- and was quickly turned into a fund-raising appeal by the Edwards campaign.

Does this obnoxious pair ever tire of playing victims? Good grief, they are whining about everything, acting like two spoiled three-year-olds. Who would elect this pansy to any responsible position, much less Leader of the Free World.
Go home to your mansion and get a life, Mr. and Mrs. Edwards.
To: Schatze
He should have continued to let his wife fight for him. He is out of his brain-weight class.

I wonder if Edwards’s father is still alive? If he was my son, I’d be too embarrassed to be seen.
