Edwards Raising Money Off Of Bill O'Reilly's Rants
The Edwards camp -- which earlier in the campaign hauled in cash off of Ann Coulter's attacks on Elizabeth Edwards -- is now trying to raise cash off of Bill O'Reilly's latest tirade against the candidate. From the campaign's latest fundraising email:
Schooled in the trash and burn tactics of Karl Rove, they have no sense of decency and exhibit no shame. Instead, they believe it is possible to twist the truth and distract voters from the issues that really matter.Let's send a message to Bill O'Reilly and Ann Coulter and all the Karl Rove wannabes that their politics of fear are no longer acceptable.
The letter also includes a video of O'Reilly attacking Edwards. We like when Edwards does this. Our only objection to this letter is that it describes O'Reilly and Coulter as "foaming, frothing pundits of the right wing." We don't think it's possible to "foam" and "froth" at the same time.
Meanwhile, Glenn Greenwald has a terrific takedown of O'Reilly's tirade against Edwards right here.

Good for John Edwards. Just keep making an ass of yourself, Mr. O'Reiley. Ol' John can sure use the cash!

I disagree 100% with the article ... its the foaming at the mouth that generates the basis for the frothing, when it is subjected to further hot air under pressure.
On the side-issue of the Edwards campaign using this to raise money, good on them (as the ozzies say) ... the sooner they have raised all they need under public financing, the sooner they can focus exclusively on campaigning and building up their grass roots support.

Might as well get some use out of that liver spot from faux news. Goopers routinely do this.

I'm no expert on the subject, but if it were possible Bill and Ann would surely have perfected the art.
