The Locker Room

Funny, Edwards-related National Review typo

Posted by Jon Sanders at 2:59 PM

Gary Andres makes an understandable typo in his National Review column on the lack of effect of John Kerry's selection of North Carolina's senator emeritus, John Edwards:


... especially how women would respond to Kerry's choice of the South Carolina senator as his running mate. ...

I say understandable because it's something we picked up on, and then poked fun at, here at the Locker Room: how John Edwards, who won election in North Carolina running local-boy-dun-good ads here, took the same tack during the presidential primary in South Carolina. And this time it was repeated nationally by a fawning national press, so that everyone knew him as the senator from South Carolina with the message of hope and optimism.

Here are a couple of selections from two days' worth of Senator Edwards "bye-ku" and "lim-e-riddance" that touched on this subject:


John Edwards comes "home"
A nation asks: Why's he in

North Carolina?


An ambulance-chaser named John was
Famed for his talk of "Two Americas"
While the press he excited
The Dems weren't ignited
So they sent him home to ... um ... the Carolinas
