Shrum: Kerry's regrets about John Edwards

Kerry talked with several potential picks, including Gephardt and Edwards. He was comfortable after his conversations with Gephardt, but even queasier about Edwards after they met. Edwards had told Kerry he was going to share a story with him that he'd never told anyone else—that after his son Wade had been killed, he climbed onto the slab at the funeral home, laid there and hugged his body, and promised that he'd do all he could to make life better for people, to live up to Wade's ideals of service. Kerry was stunned, not moved, because, as he told me later, Edwards had recounted the same exact story to him, almost in the exact same words, a year or two before—and with the same preface, that he'd never shared the memory with anyone else. Kerry said he found it chilling, and he decided he couldn't pick Edwards unless he met with him again.

1. Why Shrum wrote this scum or thought it might endear him to anyone

is a mystery. Who cares? And what is this book about, the painful secrets of politicians he thought he was privy to?
Again, who cares? It makes Shrum look like a lame attention hound.

2. Shrum is nothing but a pus-filled carbuncle on the ass of the Democratic party.

He's even slimier than Dick Morris. Wormtongue comes to mind...

5. Nothing is slimier than Dick Morris.

3. Now more than ever I believe Shrum is Scum.

NGU.

4. Bob Shrum, the highest paid loser ever! n/t

edit to add: I could find better political consultant's in my own state that would be more effective at a third of the cost.

6. You could pull the assistant dishwashing guy out of a skid row greasy spoon restaurant and get

better advice.
