Elizabeth Edwards chooses furniture over politics

For anybody who actually thought Elizabeth Edwards might run for her husband’s former Senate seat, we can put an end to the speculation.

Washington Whispers reports that Edwards, who has terminal cancer, isn’t even thinking about such things and sounds just about done with politics. And really, who can blame her?

“I was president of my junior class in high school. It was a pain in the neck,” Edwards says. “It should cure anyone of any desire to run for office.”

So how will she occupy her time after she’s done promoting her book? Well, she’s opening a furniture store.
