Category: In Your Face
If John Edwards were a Republican his decision to live in a large home would be praised as proof there is an American Dream in our free enterprise system for every hardworking businessman. And, that family values are alive and well in North Carolina.
But, John Edwards is a Democrat.

Former Sen. John "Two Americas" Edwards spoke to the Columbia (S.C) State this morning about his lovely new home in Chapel Hill, North Carolina.From that paper:
Edwards also responded to criticism over the 24,000-square-foot estate he and his wife are building outside Chapel Hill, N.C. Observers have questioned whether Edwards can be a sincere advocate for the poor while living in such splendor.
Edwards said his experience of growing up in modest means as the son of a mill worker made him want to do more for his family.
A wealthy trial lawyer, Edwards said he is able to do for his children what his father couldn't. "You don't want your kids' lives to be like yours. You don't want it to be as hard," he said.
