R.I.P Elizabeth Edwards

It's a shame that I would have to write another small tribute to a famous person whom I admired.  But Elizabeth will get much more press coverage than Dan Shorr did.  The reason being that she was married, and then estranged in the end, to a philandering husband, while she was battling breast cancer!  While he was espousing family values in his bid to be Vice President!  While he was "boinking" a woman whom he would eventually get pregnant!

She would have just been another note on a page, if it weren't for a man whose ego obviously needed more massaging than she could give.  This seems to be a problem with sports figures, politicians, men in power.  It doesn't seem to bother them that the woman trailing after them appear to be mostly interested in their money, and popping out an heir is a sure fire way for the women to get a handsome monthly salary without working.  But she's not the first one to have a devastating illness, and find out the worst about your "ever-lovin' spouse."    Remember Newt Gingrich, who left his wife, while she was in the hospital also battling cancer?

Elizabeth, to hell with John...you're the one I'm thinking about on Day 70!
