How much 'caring about the poor' out of Edwards when he isn't running for President? Maybe the cosmotologists saw their chance to improve their 'poverty' when they charged him $400.00 for a haircut! Normal people wouldn't pay $400.00 for a haircut so they would look slick enough to run for office. A person as rich as Edwards could 'help the poor' just as easy being Senator as he could being President, could he not? If helping poor people was his goal, he could help plenty in my former hometown of Chapel Hill, NC without even getting into politics! Sorry, but Edwards impresses me as just one more rich lawyer who 'cares about the poor' only during election seasons.
