The Central Cause of His Life

Horror of horrors, John Edwards is back in the newspaper the second day in a row. This time he has flown all the way to San Francisco to find a safe haven to debate Karl Rove.



One thing Edwards is not doing is taking any risks by talking to the press. (I guess the National Enquirer cured him of confrontations with reporters.) What he is saying – opining about – is how his passion for poverty is still “the central cause” of his life.



But, consider this: He has long-since resigned from the Poverty Center in Chapel Hill – that he founded.



Another Edwards poverty initiative has closed down.



And a third will shut down in May.



What the resuscitated John Edwards seems to be doing most about “the central cause” in his life is talking about it for seven-figure honorariums.
