IMO, Edwards should have done what a selfless loving husband with young children would do, quit the race and be there for his wife every step of the way, regardless of whether or not she's telling him not to quit. Running for president isn't your every day run of the mill job, where you go to the office, and at the end of the day you come home. Frankly, I think he's been extremely selfish to stay in the race at a time when his wife will need him to be there, not miles away attending fundraisers and campaigning, etc.
Agree completely. I really don't get why the Presidency is more important than being with your wife in the last years of her life. Especially with such young children. Some people have no character. Maybe they're both still in denial about her survival but most doctors would tell you that she isn't long for this world. A positive outlook helps but, still, prayers for Elizabeth and her children. I don't think prayers would help the Breck Boy.
