Lesley Stahl did a little profile of John Edwards, and it was very interesting. Remember, ladies and gentlemen, we shared with you some polling data last week that showed John Edwards and John Kerry a couple points behind Al Sharpton in the Democratic presidential sweepstakes.So with that in mind here\u2019s one of Lesley Stahl\u2019s questions to John Edwards and his answer:STAHL: Sometimes nicknames can do real damage to politicians. Tricky Dick Nixon, Slick Willie Clinton, now there\u2019s an Edwards nickname floating around. What do you say when the White House, someone in the White House says he\u2019s nothing more than the Breck Girl?<\/p>\n<p>BRECK GIRL: I say they\u2019re trying to kill me before I get this nomination.<\/p>\n<p>STAHL: And the way they\u2019re trying to kill you is saying, &#8220;Ah, come on, he\u2019s just a lightweight.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>BRECK GIRL: Yeah, bring it on, that\u2019s what I have to say. Bring it on.<\/p>\n<p>The White House monitors this program, my friends. I\u2019m sure it did come from the White House. They\u2019re not going to attribute anything to this show on 60 Minutes. But let\u2019s be honest about what\u2019s going on out there. As I say, we are show prep for the rest of the media and rather than make idle claims, we demo it for you.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/section>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Did you see 60 Minutes Sunday night, folks?
