WTH???

She changed her name to her son's???

Elizabeth had always used Anania as her last name, but in 1996 she took the name Edwards, not for political reasons but to honor the memory of their son. “I took my son’s name,” she said briskly. “I didn’t take my husband’s name.” She also had two more children: Emma Claire in 1998, and John “Jack” Edwards in 2000.

That's weird. And the "briskly" remark.

BTW, it is her "husband's" name. Must be one of those kerry-esque nuances...

[Solamente]

Will Terayza accompany him?

[OldFriend]

The knee pad brigades can smile and fawn all they want.......Chris Matthews said it all..........

Edwards threatening al qaeda is like Pee Wee Herman threatening Lucca Brazzi.

Nothing further needs to be said.
