Keeping Hardball Clean III
American Mind

Chris Matthews told Lloyd Grove, "I am morally, if not legally, responsible for what is said on the show. If someone is saying something that factually can't be proved, it's my job to call them on it."

After his tussle with Michelle Malkin, Matthews told his audience, "We are going to keep things clean on this show. No irresponsible comments are going to be made on the show."

Now that Kitty Kelley has a new book coming out, what will Matthews do?

Random House's Doubleday unit has ordered an initial printing of 750,000, and Kelley is scheduled to be interviewed by MSNBC's Chris Matthews and radio host Don Imus, among others.

Kitty Kelly is really "keep[ing] things clean."

I did not even know Edwards had written a book, until I saw it in the window of the Barnes and Noble in the historic section of Charleston.

"Four Trials" or something like that. Shades of Nixon ("Six Crises").

But what really got me was the photo on the front. He's wearing a blue Oxford shirt, and a tie, but the shirt collar is unbuttoned, and the tie is pulled down low enough to show his cleavage.

Over the years I have known many lawyers who unbuttoned their collars after work and pulled down their ties, but that was because they did that silly thing that men do as they get older, keep buying shirts with too-tight collars that start to choke them. And the collars looked it, all wrinkled and stressed out looking.

Edwards' shirt collars obviously fit him, crisp and well pressed.

It's phony. He's a phony, pure and simple. It's an act, "I am just like you, except for the fact that I wear a perfectly fitted and pressed shirt that costs more than you make in a week."
