Edwards a Liberal?
Seriously? I don't know much about him. ACLU scorecard doesn't show him yet.

1. Edwards is a picture perfect definition of a Democrat
Edited on Mon Jan-19-04 10:35 PM by dobak
He is very liberal in some areas

Moderately liberal in others

Centrist in just a few

6. Me too, if Clark doesn't make it, go John, GO!
I signed on with John Edwards before Clark entered the race. I have been very impressed with his come back performance.

2. I'm a liberal and I think Edwards has the best class politics in the race
and he's a real liberal.

Listen to CSPAN right now and see.

7. Yes, the class war is the most important thing (I am serious!)
Can you summarize his positions on that?

5. Didn't he vote for the partial-birth abortion ban?
I apologize if that's wrong, but I seem to recall that. I think he sounds pretty moderate...

9. He's a good spokesman for the DLC
Fits right in with their view of politics and the elites that should be in power.
