(cross-posted from Courage Campaign also at dailyKos) In San Diego, the questions levied at Edwards during his press availability after what I would argue was the speech of the convention were pathetic. Hedgefunds and haircuts was all they could seem to talk about. And the SF Chronicle's Carla Marinucci wasn't much better. This was her idea of a probing question: "So you are saying that YOU are the best positioned candidate to compete all over the country!?"
Edwards's rightfully dismissive response: If I didn't would I be running for president?
Since then the media's obsession with Edwards's wealth (as though it somehow undercuts his credibility on the subject of poverty) has only escalated and now Marinucci is doing her darnedest to cement this intellectually dishonest media narrative with a story titled: Recent headlines threaten Edwards's main campaign theme.
