"The Edwards operation seemed very authentic, driven by experience and fundamental belief in the power of the technology. However, it is damning to look at Edwards’ Twitter page, with 4,548 followers, and see that it was last updated 5 months ago."

Tech President on this blog entry, Shame On You, John Edwards: The Exploitation Of Web Culture. The original blog is pretty harsh - I imagine none of the exhausted, pushed-to-breaking-point, probably-heartbroken staff felt like blogging after their guy pulled out of the race. At the same time, that’s precisely why it would have been great to have an insight into what that feels like.
The most poignant episode is West Wing Series Seven was when Arnie Vinnick had to go back to his old life after the buzz of running for President. I would have liked to hear how John Edwards felt about being in a similar situation.
