This is a tough situation for his family. I'll give him the benifit of the doubt. Could be she doesn't want him to stop campaigning and wants what is left of her life to be as normal as possible. Not to have the family life become a death watch for her but to go one as normally as possible.

How does one campaign if what you say is true?

"...I'll give him the benefit of the doubt...."

That is what he is counting on. He is exploiting the natural compassion and sympathy of the voters like he used to do with juries.

Having watched others go through this (most likely) horrible time, I want to be charitable and agree with you. Anything else would be sort of a 'death watch'.

My God ease all their pains.

I'm with you.

When my father was dying of cancer, he insisted that everyone around him continue life normally. Same thing with a friend of mine whose mother had the disease.

This cynical garbage I'm reading on this thread makes me sigh. You don't like the man's politics. Great. That doesn't mean you have to spew such filth.

having seen the videos of the press conference...

I agree with you.
Leave these people alone!

I will continue to not like Edwards or his policies. But this is not the time to talk about how he choses to do whatever he and his wife decide.

She wants to go ahead and live a normal life...who knows how long she will be this healthy? let them go ahead with their life. This seems to be more HER decision than even his. I respect that.

It could be that is her wish, but as a loving husband and father he should be able to convince her that they don't need any money and that he want's to spend more time with his family. It wouldn't have to be a "death watch".

In my opinion, he's a sawed off little scumbag puke who only cares about himself.
