We agree : “ Edwards is an arrogant dishonest sleazebag...”
Edwards should change his campaign theme from ‘ I am one of the little people’ to something else. At a minimum, he makes himself an easy target for Hillary, Obama, etc.
I doubt that Edwards will make it past the first round.
Second, many of us have done lots of business traveling. Haircuts ( even at a normal price ) would likely not be approved.
Expense policies depend on a company’s policies, and vary widely, of course. I know my company has no problem with expensing restaurant meals, laundry, haircuts, etc. at reasonable prices. My boss expensed a new shirt when his flight was cancelled, forcing him to stay overnight on what was supposed to be just a day trip, and making it impossible for him to go home from the airport the next day, before getting to the office for a client meeting.
Personally, I hope Edwards keeps right on with his “I am one of the little people” theme. It’s just too rich, coming from a guy who’s having the finishing touches put on his new 28,000 square foot house. So far, he and his campaign are coming across as custom-crafted by Republican operatives.
