Chicago Tribune actually has an editorial on John Edward's haircut

[draft_mario_cuomo]

:wtf: The CMSM seems to be willing to go to any length to weaken Edwards' campaign and his dangerous "Two Americas" message.

1. "But his hair just won't stay out of the news."

His hair ISN'T in "the news".

The only people talking about his ONE $400 haircut months ago are puffed up airhead corporate whores who pimped & preened & prettified every day by their own hairdressers & makeup artists who are ON THEIR STAFFS & I bet each make a whole lot more than $400 each week doing so.

Why not do an editorial about the Edwards health care plan, or his economic plan, or his plan on rebuilding America's tarnished reputation around the world?

2. He's our Marvelous Marvin; no respect for him as a candidate by the media.

3. This line is beyond absurd:

"...Mitt Romney, says he spends only $50 per haircut. Keep that in mind if we wind up with a Romney-Edwards race and you want to know who will balance the federal budget."

:wtf: !!!!!!??

10. I guess they haven't heard about Romney's $300 MAKEUP consultant.

4. The old "grey lady" of Chicago is terrified of a "class war." Go, John, follow

the path of RFK! Its a winner, but don't forget Iraq - we have to get out now.

6. Dear gawd...they're milking Edwards' hair for all it's worth.

I think he should don this look:

or something similar.

Lose the two thumbs' up, keep the jeans, and substitute the preppy button-downs and Topsiders for something infinitely less preppy.

Espouse the views of your wonderful wife (you probably already do, but are trying to play it "safe") and watch your poll numbers rise. (Example: "I don't know why somebody else's marriage has anything to do with me,'' she said. "I'm completely comfortable with gay marriage." Brilliant, and the majority of Americans agree!)

I realize how ridiculous most of this post is, but I am SO sick of Edwards' hair!!

7. Well, real money

went for his hair. Even though he's a multi-millionaire, he wouldn't pay for it out of his pocket--he had his campaign pay for it. What if he looked a little worse with a $15 haircut, and spent the difference on lunches.
Edwards is now a national joke. And, he should be. If he really cared about poor people, he'd give his money away and become a public defender.

11. Are you TRYING to damage Obama?

[Jack Bone]

8. One could then deduce..that the movers & shakers out there

must be terrified of him & his message...

could he be "The Real Deal"??

maybe a RFK re-incarnate...or something a helluva lot closer than others??

every time I hear this crap....I always ask myself why? who can benefit from this over & over again??


Hmmmmmm?

9. It's not being threatened that drives it. They promote the establishment one and not

those who don't conform. The msm wants the approved corporate candidate to promote endlessly and cover any missteps by her/him.
However, in this case it is not being threatened by Edwards or promoting Hillary.
It is the Chicago media. Chicago is where Obama is from
