Edwards Claims His Mega-Mansion is Carbon Neutral

Call it "Dancing with the Stars": Global Warming Edition. Democratic presidential hopeful John Edwards showed his best dance moves trying to avoid questions about how energy efficient his 28,000-square-foot mansion really is and how much the power bill costs each month.

O'Brien asked about Edwards "getting Americans to conserve more." Edwards responded with talk of conservation and then requirements. "One of the things that's going to be required is for Americans to be willing to drive more fuel-efficient vehicles and to be willing to conserve and we want to help them do that."

When O'Brien asked specifically about his house, Edwards turned into a dancing king. Asked about the cost of energy for the home, Edwards tried several answers:

* "It's actually not bad." And followed that up with talk of how energy efficient the home was.
* "I'm not telling you. It's actually, it's actually not bad. It's about three or four hundred dollars, the last one I saw."
* Following that claim, Edwards backed off a bit and said "the power bill is several hundred dollars a month."


yeah, okay....
