The Duplicitous Elizabeth Edwards

Yesterday, I lamented that few people seemed to be treating Liz Edwards like a grown-up.

Slate columnist John Dickerson is not one of the hombres I'm complaning about.

He took issue with a recent Edwards campaign ad with Elizabeth making a not-so-thinly-veiled reference to her cancer...after, of course, the campaign went out of its way to say that people should not give him a sympathy vote.

Mrs. Edwards is now feigning dumb and pretending that anyone who inferred that their ad claim (That John can "can stare the worst in the face and not blink") referred to her cancer is either mistaken or cynical.

Shame on them.
