Unbeknownst to the crowd, Edwards, his wife and staff were scrambling off their broken bus into two minivans and racing to the event. Eventually, they arrived. He spoke. His staff hastily rented another plain bus and the even tardier campaign headed off to a supporter's house in Atlantic.
Edwards' worried staff assured reporters that the main Main Street Express bus really hadn't broken down. They said the troubled vehicle was left behind in Council Bluffs out of "an abundance of caution."
Looks like the 36-hour bus tour might get to at least 40.

Poor bus probably couldn’t handle the strain of carrying a half a dozen barrels of hair spray and mousse.

A metaphor for his campaign?

This is tacky (because I would be angry if anyone said it about my candidate) but what is an extremely ill woman doing on a trek like this? And what are the small children they tried so hard to have doing?

I'd like to suggest that Edwards
not charter a small plane in Iowa.

Should read simply:”the entire Edwards entourage pulled over at a service station and was abandoned.” Forget about the “bus” part!
