As for John Edwards, I actually respect him more than other democrats running for president or in the house and senate.

Something most democrats seem to have lost on their way to the cabinet floor.
In actuallity, John Edwards could have won the 2004 Presidential election on his own without being bound to the hands of a clown like John Kerry. |
I live in NC less than 20 miles from where Edwards grew up, and 50 miles from where he is building his palace. I have followed his careeer as long as he has had one, and have friends who worked with him in his law firm. I think I know John Edwards pretty well.
If you are comfortable voting for an ambulance chaser who "channels" the suffering of problem deliveries, putting good OB/Gyns out of business, then advocates abortion on demand, a charlatan who preaches the worst kind of class warfare, then builds a huge mansion in incredible hypocrisy, a man who espoused family values and moderate positions to get elected, then quickly moved to the far left end of the spectrium, near Kucinich, if you like a man who would ban every firearm in this country, and bankrupt the firearms industry with frivolous lawsuits, if you want a cut and run policy in Iraq and forced acceptance of gays in marriage and the military, then Johnny is your kind of "moderate" candidate.
He couldn't even deliver his home state in the last election, because people here realized who he had morphed into.
Personally, I think he is a sorry, America hating SOB who I would not vote for as a dogcatcher, but that is just my .02.
