suppose Edwards is the only "top tier" candidate talking about poverty,
and he pretty much is. Suppose also that Edwards has some trouble getting his head around gay rights, and he evidently does.

So, folks who are concerned about both gay rights and poverty are pretty much screwed.

Does this not seem more than a little convenient to anyone but me?

1. It shows how divided we are now.
Unfortunately, the days of caring about issues that don't affect you personally seem to be pretty much gone.

:cry:

2. Obama has been talking about poverty but, he doesn't say it is just poverty.
If you saw the forum last night he was talking about poverty. he frames it different from Edwards and doesn't have it as his central issue like Edwards. Nothing wrong with Edwards doing that as it is his passion. i am just saying he is addressing it but, much different.

3. A request for R's for this important question...
"Can we talk?"
