warren buffett goes up in my estimation

Not by much - he knows a great deal about business but is an economics illiterate (and no, the two are not the same, not even slightly) - but a little.
No, I didn’t–I didn’t give money to John Edwards. And, in fact, I think if I’d given money to him, I’d probably be asking for it back now. It’s an interesting situation because John Edwards essentially was soliciting money from people to further his ambitions for the presidency, and, you know, people sent him 50, $100, $200, and I would say that they sent it in while they were being misled by the person who was soliciting the money from them…..
…..And, in fact, I’ve never heard of it, but it might be kind of interesting if somebody, some contributor, would bring a class-action suit on behalf of all these people who essentially were led to send money to a man under totally false circumstances, false pretenses, and where he knew it and didn’t tell them the truth.
I would crawl a mile through broken glass on my hands and knees to watch footage of John Edwards testifying in a class action suit brought against him by other Democrats. Hopefully someone would be there to channel the unborn love child that Edwards never fathered.

Dang! Now I wish I’d sent a few bucks to Edwards too! Might be a good thing to do in the future; send a contribution to a candidate and then hold him/her to a level of behaviour!
