After finishing third, John Edwards gave virtually the same concession speech as in Iowa. Again, he talks about Nataline Sarkisyan, the 17-year-old girl who died while awaiting a liver transplant that her insurance company refused to cover (am I the only one who finds it weird that Edwards never mentions the name of the insurance company? It was CIGNA and you can read more about the case here.) Again, he talks about James Lowe, the man who couldn't afford to get his cleft palate fixed for years (YouTube clip of Edwards with Lowe embedded below). Are these the only two people in America that have ever had a bad run-in with an insurance company? Why not just screen "Sicko" and call it a night?

He actually finished second in Iowa. Not third.

I've corrected it now. Thanks.
