Apparently, he spent a while at this voter's household, showing them how to be more energy efficient. I wonder if anyone there asked him how much energy his new 10,700 sq. ft mansion is going to use up? Typical "do as I say, not as I do" Liberal elitist. Anyway, within the photos I found this link to Edward's "OneCorps" election site, which is interesting for it's complete vagueness as to what he stands for: http://blog.johnedwards.com/onecorps

This man o'the people would be better suited starring in a remake of Back To The Future.

LOL What an incredible amount of nerve this guy has. I'd have thrown him out on his bum.

10,700 sq. ft mansion

Only 10,700? I thought it was 30,000

[Tijeras_Slim]

29,000 plus is what I heard. His catbox is bigger than these folks house.

I like how 'natural' the first pic looks. Two red haired women dressed in red. The guy looks staged to begin with IMO.

[Long Island Pete]

Are those the same lightbulbs that California wants to outlaw?

[mel]

This guy is so bogus. He knows better than anyone else. What a jerk.

[Boston Blackie]

You peasants do as I say, not as I do.

The 28,200-square-foot Edwards home in Orange County is expected to be valued at more than $6 million.

[InvisibleChurch]

There are two Americas.

I live in one America -- that of the rich and privileged.

These people live in the other America -- of the commoners.

These people in that other America shop at Walmart.

Walmart has my Playstation 3.

Walmart and my Playstation 3 are in one America. I am in the other America.

I am going to try to coerce one of the people in that other America where they and Walmart are to get my damn Playstation 3 for me and my kids. We deserve it more than they do!!! Dammit!

"Only 10,700? I thought it was 30,000"

My understanding is that the "living quarters" is 10,700. The other 19,000 is in the barn/racquet ballcourt/basketball court which is attached and considered to be part of the overall footprint.

And when I was your age, my parents used to lock me in a basement too!

How many liberals does it take to screw in a light bulb?

"O.K., here's how it works. You implement these measures to make your house more energy efficient. Then, you can more easily afford the higher taxes I plan to impose on you. Then I can make sure everyone has medical insurance. When everyone has medical insurance, the doctors and hospitals will have more money to pay me when I drag them into court and convice an idiot jury that I'm channeling dead kids."

I know it's a bit wordy, but hey, John's a complex guy.
