The Washington Post‘s Chris Cillizza has a fantastic feature out today on the impact former Howard Dean campaign manager Joe Trippi has had on the John Edwards campaign, and the close bond between Trippi and Elizabeth Edwards. It’s a total must-read if you want to understand where that campaign is going, and why.
