candidate endorsement interview.
Edwards clearly stated that his view on what needs to happen with the entrenched corporate interest was a point of contention with the editorial board.
Over these past many months I have read over and over on this board, the shrill and meanspirited voices who write over and over that Edwards can't be trusted because he panders.
Well he sure as hell didn't pander to the DeMoine Register editorial board did he?
It's a three way tie in Iowa - Edwards hasn't raised the kind of money Clinton and Obama has - and the Register endorsement would have helped.
But Edwards has stuck to his guns, been true to his message even if it meant a "heated discussion" with the editorial board.
I want to put to rest, here and now, and say to those detractors who have tried their very best to chop Edwards down at the knees.......he is more progressive and gets what needs to happen in DC more than any other candidate to date.
Edwards scares the crap out of the insurance companies......and we all know it.....
