22. Bullshit
Edited on Wed Jan-30-08 03:37 PM by Aya Reiko
He got media coverage, not as much as Obama or Clinton though. But he did get media coverage and he was always portrayed as the underdog, and people love to root for the underdog. And he wasn't shying away from the other outlets too; Countdown, Real Time, Letterman, etc.

It was when people saw him, they just didn't like what they saw.

What killed the Edwards campaign was his one-state-strategy. He bet it all on Iowa and lost. He didn't have the infrastructure, the resources, or the support like Hillary had to carry him past the Iowa loss.
