JOHN EDWARDS, HILLARY CLINTON

Elizabeth Edwards, Tougher on MoveOn's Ad Than Hillary

As noted by Ben Smith, Elizabeth Edwards - yes, that Elizabeth Edwards! - criticizes MoveOn's ad.

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.

Elizabeth Edwards said the group could have made its point by simply using Petraeus’ own previous words about purported good news in Iraq without insulting him personally.

Why is that so hard for Hillary to say?
