If former Sen. John Edwards, D-N.C., ever wants to return to public life, much less politics, he'll have a whole lot of damage control to do first.
A new poll conducted in North Carolina by Public Policy Polling found that 69 percent of voters in the state have an unfavorable view of Edwards. That, according to Political Wire, is the lowest favorability number that PPP has ever found for any politician, anywhere. On the other hand, Elizabeth Edwards continues to poll well; 58 percent of respondents have a favorable opinion of her, which is better than President Obama's rating in the state.
