  He really comes across as a relaxed, good humored person. I think that's what happens when people make the decision to simply follow their consciences, speak the truth, and just see what happens.

      The only folks until last night who'd seen his hair like that were Elizabeth and the kids.

        take himself too seriously. Can you imagine Letterman doing this to Dick Cheney or W...they would have the Secret Service club Dave with a night stick.

      I was a little worried about it at first---who the hell is David Letterman to do something like that to a US presidential candidate?---but then I thought better of it when Edwards took it so good naturedly.
      
      I was waiting for him to push his hair back into place, but he didn't do it. He sat there, looking funny, and he understood why. That told me volumes about him.
      
      God, I wish he was doing better in the race.

      Personally, I think it was brilliant - confronts the hair thing right there on national TV.
      
      Edwards is human. Alert the media.

  ...something Letterman himself said last year:
  
  "I have the feeling about 60 percent of what you say is crap."
  
  I think Letterman really liked the fact that Edwards knew about the incident.

  word that means crap... if it were allowed on TV. Bill O'Rielly is a pathetic treasonous evil right wing talking point whore.
