Edwardses campaign as a team again; crowds love it

Elkader, Ia. — John Edwards’ most persistent heckler has returned to the campaign trail.

She is the woman in rubber-soled boots and blue jeans, sitting among Iowa voters during an Edwards campaign stop at Elkader’s charming old opera house.

The heckler listens as the presidential candidate explains why it would be a bad idea for the United States to impose a partition plan on Iraq. When he pauses, she raises her hand and asks him to give her the microphone. She says she wants to speak “because I’m not sure I agree with you.”

The candidate shakes his head and feigns exasperation. “I’m not gonna give you the mic,” he tells her. The crowd erupts in laughter as he notes that he’s crossed swords before with this woman, whom he married 30 years ago.
