Democratic presidential candidate John Edwards’ demagoguery has been a frequent topic on this blog, so I read with interest this Larry Ribstein post that analyzes Edwards’ latest hypocrisy — lambasting the actions of subprime lenders on the campaign trail while profiting from a company that invests substantial amounts in subprime lenders.
Meanwhile, the Onion brilliantly captures the essence of Edwards’ vacuity in this article with the headline “John Edwards Vows To End All Bad Things By 2011.”
