Edwards' favorite code word is power. Check out the excerpts from a speech he gave to Drake University Law School (IOWA) students in March, 2001.

You're right, the word "power" is used by Edwards as "like", "you know", etc., is used by teenyboppers. Without it his speeches would be half as long yet just as boring.

Over eager Edwards sez:

" I didn't go up there to Schmooze the people. Meaning -I Schmoozed the chumps to get up there.

"And the people on the other side are the BIG HMOs and Insurance companies." Liar, I'm on the other side and have never owned a HMO or Ins. Co.-have you?

"Who speaks for those people of NC who I grew up with?" (shouldn't that be, "with whom I grew up"? Petty-yeah I know, but the guy's a Senator and wants to be President.)Duh.......maybe our representatives in the House, John? That is when they're not neutralized by the liberal Senate.

We cannot forget little Vallerie Lakey and the terrible tragedy she suffered and will have to struggle with all her life, John. We also can't forget the lawyer who represented her, and was so lacking in compassion that instead of working probono and allowing the poor victem to recieve the entire award, shamelessly stepped up with his hands out and demanded his share. We can't forget you Johh, but we wish to God you would just go away, so we could try.
