For that matter, which member of that marriage actually has the testicles?

MoveOn.org should not have labeled Gen. David Petraeus “General Betray Us” in a controversial newspaper ad, Elizabeth Edwards said in Des Moines Friday.

“Someone who’s spent their life in the military doesn’t deserve ‘General Betray Us,’” said Edwards, wife of Democratic presidential candidate John Edwards.

That is all well and good, but I expect such pronouncements to come from the candidate rather than the candidate's spouse. I'd begin taking John Edwards seriously if he would quit sending his wife to do the hard jobs and begin doing them himself. Instead, he sends his sick wife on the road to confront bad behavior by his supporter, but remains silent himself so that he can deny condemning the group himself. That is the behavior of a coward.
