Sitrick also believes the former Senator needs to recruit the missus, Elizabeth Edwards. "If she said, 'He breached the most important thing we had, which is trust, and I'm hurt beyond words, but I believe in him,' she'd get Mother Teresa status and it would help him with his biggest problem, which is the credibility,'' says Sitrick. This could be tough, however, since two new books, one of which is by Edwards' former aide Andrew Young, a.k.a. the guy who originally claimed to be Quinn's dad, cast both Edwardses in a bad light, and Elizabeth...
...happens to be allergic to populism, and Obama political adviser David Axelrod wants to strike a much more populist are-you-with-us-or-the-banks tone in 2010. Axelrod and Obama aide Valerie Jarrett met at the White House on Wednesday with Harvard law professor and TARP watchdog Elizabeth Warren, the mother of the stand-alone consumer-agency proposal and an outspoken advocate for reform; their message was that they'd welcome a fight with Wall Street...

With Jude chasing us on foot, we drove...

Wary of the failure rate of Lombard's unmonitored returns, we worked with a dedicated social worker in Indwe to ensure that the conditions under which she was originally trafficked did not reappear. A suburban-Chicago couple has given her a full scholarship, enabling the otherwise impossible goal of finishing school. She is HIV-negative. It is a stretch to call her lucky...
