"To pick that place as your campaign center, when you're going to be the man who advocates on behalf of the poor...

He can "care" about the poor without having to actually be around them, sheeesh. They're really, really icky, after all.

“I can’t imagine that a national campaign would spend this much time and effort trying to squash a story that’s on a campus newscast that will be seen by, at most, a couple of thousand viewers.”

...Gee Whiz, you can’t Mr. Tuggle? I don’t know if this “Tuggle” guy is a lib or a conservative but chances he’s a lib and surely he knows that squashing and threatening any bad press for a lib candidate is business as usual.

Clearly the Edwards dopes haven’t figured out that trying to kill a story in the age of the internet is the surest way of getting it infinitely more attention.

I assumed a lot of slapping and hair-pulling was going on.

Silly students. Everyone knows Democrats get prior restraint simply by asking for it. What are they thinking? < / sarcasm>

The journalism professor said the staffers threatened to cut off access to Edwards to all UNC student groups if the student-run television program aired a segment critical of the location of the Chapel Hill headquarters.

“I’m dumbfounded by it,” Tuggle told the radio station. “I can’t imagine that a national campaign would spend this much time and effort trying to squash a story that’s on a campus newscast that will be seen by, at most, a couple of thousand viewers.”

Its not serious til the campaign sends out The Big E (Elisabeth Edwards) to fight the battle...(chuckle)

Another mistake by the Breck Girl here. He just can’t help looking like a girlie man....because, well...he is a girlie man.

Associate Professor C.A. Tuggle said that he received phone calls from two top staffers for the former North Carolina senator.

Welcome to the DemocRAT party, Prof. Tuggle! You DO realize they don't really believe in FREEDOM OF SPEECH, now, do you?!

I love it. Edwards goons try to crush a story that would be no surprise to anyone with half a brain and turn it into a nationally exposed story that includes strong arm tactics to get their way.

The Breck Girl hasn’t a chance in this election and Edwards knows it. He’s in it for the ego trip and money. The moneyu is easier to get through contributions and caviar fund raisers than having to actually work and sue someone.
