FYI

Yep, that's my Senator -- representing the great state of North Carolina... when it doesn't interfere with his Presidential campaign in other states.

"Lawyers' planes kept Edwards' campaign aloft"

Their fee: 1/3 of his Presidency and expenses.

Thanks for the ping!

The bar graph that "defeat_the_dem_igods" posts will be very appropriate here.

John Edwards wants to be another Bill Clinton, except he lacks the political experience in gutter politics.

[Howlin]

He's going to lose the Senate, too, you wait.

Articles like this really help.

§ 91.321 Carriage of candidates in Federal elections.

(a) An aircraft operator, other than one operating an aircraft under the rules of part 121, 125, or 135 of this chapter, may receive payment for the carriage of a candidate in a Federal election, an agent of the candidate, or a person traveling on behalf of the candidate, if --

(1) That operator's primary business is not as an air carrier or commercial operator;

(2) The carriage is conducted under the rules of this part 91; and

(3) The payment for the carriage is required, and does not exceed the amount required to be paid, by regulations of the Federal Election Commission (11 CFR et seq.).

(b) For the purposes of this section, the terms candidate and election have the same meaning as that set forth in the regulations of the Federal Election Commission.

Anyone know if Edwards is officially a candidate for federal office? Maybe some illegal payments here???....

More on Edwards' floudering.

[Freedom'sWorthIt]

This is not a surprise.

[Howlin]

Oh yummy......thanks for all that information!

It's going to be REALLY interesting watching him try to weasel out of all that NEWS when he has to come back to N.C. and beg for his seat.

We have a truckload of ammunition!

"Maybe some illegal payments here???"

No, this little exerpt "fixes" that:

"...and does not exceed the amount required to be paid,..."

Ah! Nothing like lawyer-speak to protect the nobly challenged.

[Swanks]

This clown is nothing but a perpetual campaigning machine. To bad NC has only one senator looking after her interests.

"To bad NC has only one senator looking after her interests."

You must mean Dole.

You have to be kidding me. She's too busy taking kickbacks from interest groups. Oh, that and trying to find a new way for the national government to intrude on the lives of the citizens of the respective states. Which usually involves something with our cars

I have to admit though Az, I think Johnny Boy is spending less time in our state and more time in the air than anyone else I've ever seen from this state. But that's a good thing. At least in '04 when he loses the Senate race, we'll know what to expect from our then senior Senator for the next four years
