Edwards has no doubt been schmoozing th eclymers in the press and tv for the past year. He has to be a winner, as far as they are concerned; after all, he can talk and he has "executive hair."

I think we need to find three of his most disgusting votes and publicize them. I also think that gated community is a photo-op waiting to happen.

Remember the "If Bush is elected, the NRA will set up office in the Oval Office" thing? I think we should go with that, only make it TRIAL LAWYERS.

A few examples of Senator Edwards's failure to represent the people of North Carolina
  • Voted NO to the bipartisan tax cut plan (a bill which passed 62-38).
  • Voted NO to partial birth abortion ban (a bill which passed 63-34).
  • Voted NO to eliminating the marriage tax penalty.
  • Voted NO to repealing the estate tax (a bill which passed 59-39).
  • Voted NO on the confirmation of Interior Secretary Gale Norton (one of only 24 senators to do so).
  • Voted NO to temporarily suspending the gasoline tax.
  • Voted NO to stopping the use of federal funds to distribute the "morning after pill" on school grounds.
  • Voted NO to limiting the social security tax to 50% of total benefits (it had been 85%).

Edwards the rat.
He's pro-partial birth abortion yet heads up the Senate prayer breakfast and criticized President Bush's family values in front of a convention of Baptists. That's hypocrisy.

What defines Edwards the most, imho, is his divisiveness - how he pits one group of Americans against the other for power's sake....class, race, sex...and his lack of humility. His "the little people have nothing without me" spiel may play in Havana, but this is America in wartime. Chanting 'United We Stand' at an Edwards' rally would probably derail his whole campaign.

Ask Chip Pickering what he thinks about the character of Sen. John Edwards.
