Democrats fault Elizabeth Edwards
Some consider her reckless in remaining quiet about her husband's extramarital affair
RALEIGH (Winston-Salem Journal) - Two weeks after a devastating revelation sent her husband into political exile, Elizabeth Edwards isn't getting the steady sympathy usually afforded to a woman scorned.
Instead, she has faced criticism from dedicated Democrats who say they think that she was too willing to keep the affair a secret to help John Edwards' political ambitions, as well as her own.
At a time when she was expected to hold a prominent role in pushing an agenda of improved health care for Americans, she stands silent. While fellow Democrats converge in Denver to nominate Barack Obama for president, Edwards remains in seclusion in North Carolina.

It's amazing how the Democrats have thrown John Edwards and his wife, Elizabeth, overboard and not looking back, especially seeing how they rallied to Bill & Hillary Clinton during his sex scandals. Granted, Bill was president at the time, and the Democrats thoroughly enjoyed sticking it to the Republicans during that time, but still, one would think they would stand behind Elizabeth. Heck, they stood behind Hillary, even while she was leading the charge to ruin the lives of Bill's mistresses. I guess I shouldn't be surprised because liberals aren't exactly consistent with their positions.
