Actually, I would be interested in knowing more about Edwareds. I actually called what I thought was his campaign yesterday to get some info about him, but the 411 operator gave me Kerry for President. The woman answering the phone was very snotty when I said I thought I was calling the Edwards campaign.

Edwards -- from his own positive point of view -- but on his Senate site, it has links to some of his Senate speeches, to give you an idea.

And here is something to be really concerned about:

John Edwards, Esq.
Republicans believe that Americans will never elect a trial lawyer president. They're wrong.

More than you ever wanted to know:

This seems to be an anti-Edwards site, it's worth bookmarking it -- although it looks like it may be a "Democrats AGAINST Edwards" (I.e. possibly Kerry), but the info is still helpful.

ELECTION '04 PRIMER

Are you a Democrat, considering voting for Edwards? Here are a few facts.
Edwards is the only major candidate who has refused to provide a list of his campaign's major contributors.
Edwards voted AGAINST tax cuts for working Americans, several times (during both the Clinton & Bush years, see below).
Polling in North Carolina has shown that Edwards would NOT beat George W. Bush in his home state. In fact, he would fare no better than Gore, who received 43% of the vote in 2000.
Edwards ran as a moderate in 1998 and after being elected, virtually ignored his constituents, choosing instead to position himself for a run for the presidency by aligning himself with the powerful Left. This is a man driven by his own ambition.
Edwards decries the "special interests," but himself is beholden to the trial lawyers, one of the biggest "special interests" in Washington.
Edwards is not "one of us." He is a very, very wealthy man who profited from the misfortunes of others during his career as a trial lawyer.
