Farewell, Silky Pony! FNC is reporting that John Edwards is dropping out of the Presidential race. Wonder how he got the nickname “Silky Pony?” Check it out…

Why did the media love John Edwards in the first place? Because, like so many media types, he cares about his hair. Not just like a regular guy; no, John Edwards cares a lot about his hair. Whatever his principles, vision, goals, and dreams, one thing you can count on: John Edwards CARES About His Hair. You can take that to the bank. And media types just love pretty people who fuss over their hair - why, he seems just like them when he does this!

Sorry, but the only time that this level of preening and primping should be tolerated in a man is if his name is Tony Manero and the year is 1977.
