Bob Shrum apparently slams John Edwards in his new book. While I am no fan of Edwards, I believe that Shrum is not being completely honest in his portrayal of Edwards and something must have happened in the last year to sour their relationship. I attended a talk last year with Bob Shrum, which was followed by a question & and answer period sponsored by the Law Democrats. In the q&a period, he indicated that he thought it was Edwards and not Kerry who was the candidate best loved by Iowans and that if the Iowa caucus had lasted longer that Edwards would have won it. Therefore, I reason to suspect a recent deterioration in their relationship, which caused Shrum to lash out at Edwards.
