9/19/2004: Three-year-old campaigner cries

[Undertoad]

If you read the full page at Rising Hegemon it points to the Union's apology for their member's actions - it's not the guy's son. The guy is a serial event-buster and it's not interesting that he's been in the newspapers for it multiple times. You'd expect it. Think about it - the VP candidate shows up at the airport, the photographers are all there, and the boring as hell headline is "Edwards says a few words at airport". But a much better headline is "Political guy gets sign tooken away in minor fracas"...

The thing is, a really great headline is "Edwards Supporter is Mean to Little Girl".

And so if the guy was a serial event-buster and had his signs tooken before and knew it was likely, why did he take his three-year-old? On purpose? Into the hornet's nest?

Is that, like, family values or something?
