Fall of the Mighty

I’d give the front page of today’s N&O to any young person who aspires to go into politics.
Ruffin Poole , the “little Governor,” gets indicted on 51 counts of corruption.
John Edwards confesses, says he’s sorry and vows to find another way to serve – so long as it’s well-publicized and photographed, apparently.
It’s an old story, as old as Greek mythology and the Bible.
You fly too high, and you tempt fate. You breathe rarified air, and you lose your mind. You get to thinking you’re above it all, and you fall back to earth.
Take heed.
