The notion that John Edwards should drop out of the race and stay at home with Elizabeth, Emma Claire and Jack is nonsense.

It presumes she has limited time — which she cannot do. She cannot sit down and wait to die. It presumes that the life that her children would live with her at home would be better than the experience of watching their parents fight the good fight.

"I am denying it control over how I spend the rest of my life."

Of course, Mrs. Edwards.
