Elizabeth Edwards Is Dead, and DC Pundits Are Already Pretending They Liked Her

Elizabeth Edwards Is Dead, and DC Pundits Are Already Pretending They Liked Her:

(Newser) – Now that Elizabeth Edwards has died, it's time for the 'DC establishment types who hated her when she was alive to pretend they admired and liked her,' predicts Max Read on Gawker. Edwards wasn't popular among the DC pundits, and even if she was a 'difficult' person, Read writes, 'she didn't deserve the bizarrely personal, kick-her-while-she's-down attacks she had to put up with.' But now, expect those same attackers—or some of them, at least—to come out of the woodwork with all sorts of fake sentiment.
