...sister had the mentality of a 9-month-old, although her body continued to mature. When the decision was made to place her in a facility, it was only because she was almost as tall as my mother and we were no longer able to lift her and provide her with the care she needed. If the options available to Ashley's parents had been available to us in the early 1980s, we would have done the same thing. She might still be alive today had we been able to care for her at home. Please do not condemn Ashley...

...Before the Edwards campaign recruited Marcotte, it found another biting left-wing feminist voice in blogger Melissa McEwan of Shakespeare's Sister. He has given overall control of Internet strategy to Mathew Gross, the man who pioneered that job for Howard Dean in 2004. The efforts seemed at first to pay off: Edwards almost always wins the nonscientific but closely watched monthly straw poll organized by liberal blogger Markos Moulitsas.
