This story apparently originated from Robert Novak - so who knows - he bats around .250 - when it comes to his honesty / dishonesty ratio - so, with multiple large grains of salt at the ready:

Assuming for the moment that it's true - John Edwards was practically MADE for this job - plus - he's basically been campaigning for President by promising to be a great U.S. Attorney General - and - besides Eliot Spitzer, who has already taken a job in one of those small blue states up north - who else could be trusted with the task of going after corporate white-collar criminals and reforming / reversing the last 20 years of "privatizing"-embezzlement and corporate Republican looting of the common wealth? John Edwards really IS the only man fit for this job. Now, if we can just get Al Gore to be President Obama's V.P. and if we can get Ralph Nader to promise to keep his mouth shut by giving him a great job - like running the consumer protection agency - we'd finally have something approaching a real democracy.
(*Hint: The answer would be "None of the Above" - we're going with The DailyKOS for that position, thank you very much.)
Senator Hillary Clinton needs to go back to the U.S Senate and sit quietly, respectfully and studiously at the feet of Senator Ted Kennedy, she needs to put some space between herself and the Unholy Tag-Team Combo of Bill Clinton / George H.W. Bush - AND the DLC's corrosive Karl Rove-styled campaign tactics - these people and these tactics are NOT what the voters are looking for and they've been a bad influence on Senator Clinton - and on her political positions. Senator Hillary Clinton needs to go back to the Senate and RE-LEARN what it means to be a REAL DEMOCRAT - she absolutely has to do that before she can ever hope to be seriously considered as a Democratic Candidate for the Presidency. This isn't sexism, I desperately want to vote for a female Democratic Party President - but she has to be a real DEMOCRAT - and NOT just another SEMI-CRAT.
This should be the hard-learned and well-earned lesson coming out of the South Carolina Primary / Ass-Kicking for Senator Hillary Clinton, for the Former President William Jefferson Clinton, for all of their greasy, obscenely-paid, blatantly-dishonest minions and for all of the other old school Pseudocrats:
