We got our hands on an upcoming New York Times magazine cover story examining Edwards and his poverty platform. Some highlights of the piece:
-- “What stands out the most about Edwards’s antipoverty ideas is their familiarity. It’s as if he has taken most of the proposals that have been talked about in policy groups and at university forums since the 1990s and thrown them all together into one comprehensive and expensive package. The individual proposals themselves, far from being radical or populist, basically sound — there’s no other way to put it — Clintonian”... “Exiling oneself from Washington and being subsequently reborn as a more candid and compassionate politician is an old and popular plotline in Democratic politics. Robert Kennedy built his legend on the same idea in the mid-1960s… Edwards clearly sees himself in this vein.”

Hil’s Marching Minions at work. She must not have done that well at the last debate.
This is amazing. A liberal paper such as the times is going with a story that is not flattering to Edwards at all.
Osama Obama,Biden and Hillary! all have ADA ratings for liberal voting that are higher than Edwards'...so of course he's not gonna be the Times' first choice...or second choice...or third choice.

Maybe they don’t like Edwards’ message. Democrat’s success after all, comes when they cloak their message in conservative rhetoric. Supporting proven failed policies of the past won’t get you elected. The Times obviously likes candidates who can fool the rubes yet one more time. Gack, maybe the Times is thinking this guy really belives this stuff. That would be an automatic disqualifier.
Geez. What’s so amazing? They’re 100% shilling for Hillary.
Mah Daddy was a millworker...
...ya kno’....two Americas an’ all that...
Edward’s anti-poverty message is playing well with the religious left. Left or right, they don’t like the idea of religion playing a role in politics.
That poor, poor man! < /sarcasm >
yep, him and his Two Americas horse______.
No question which America he belongs to.
