Well, we shall get it to them then.

Here's Rush yesterday on the Breck Girl (for those who missed it):

Candy Ass Edwards Is Still Afraid of Fox

RUSH: John Edwards, the Breck Girl, is back. He's a total candy ass. He wants to be leader of the free world, and he can't even appear on a network that might oppose him! He has dropped out of another Fox News debate. "The Edwards campaign said it will not attend the September 23rd debate in Detroit hosted by Fox News and the Congressional Black Caucus Institute, but officials added that Edwards is looking forward to a different debate hosted by the institute and CNN in South Carolina in January of 2008." So he's canceling the Fox News Channel to appear on CNN? See, what Edwards doesn't get here is that everybody knows that he's other media outlets are just as agenda-oriented as they think Fox is!

So here's Edwards, seeking the highest office in the land to become the leader of the free world, and it appears he doesn't have the guts to go on Fox. Now, I think what he's doing is fundraising among the kook base who hate Fox News and all of that, but at the same time, he's creating this impression here. He's leaving the door wide open for another Democrat to agree to this debate, while saying, "I'm not afraid of this challenge. I'm not afraid of Fox News. I'll be glad to go to a debate hosted at Fox News." These debates, the candidates star in the debates! All you're going to get is questions. I don't think this looks good. Twice he's done this now? We'll see. The effects of this are not going to show immediately, by the way. These are the kind of things people hear, learn and remember over the passage of time.
