And quite possibly it also might drive some of the more moderate or centerist democrats to the republican side. Not all democrats like or approve of Kerry and Edwards, and also not all democrats hate President George W. Bush, and want their side to win at all costs just to beat Bush!

Just a thought!

Woof!

Kerry-Edwards More Liberal Than Mondale-Ferraro
By Susan Jones

July 07, 2004

(CNSNews.com) - It's official, the Republican National Committee said on Wednesday. The Kerry-Edwards ticket has made history, because it is more liberal than the 1984 Mondale-Ferraro team, based on ratings from the liberal Americans for Democratic Action.

The ADA gave Democrat Walter Mondale a lifetime rating of 90 percent, the RNC noted, while John Kerry's lifetime ADA rating is 92 percent.

Mondale's running mate Geraldine Ferraro received a 79 percent lifetime ADA rating, while John Edwards' lifetime ADA rating is 81 percent.

Americans for Democratic Action says it judges politicians' liberal tendencies, based on 20 key votes on a wide range of social and economic issues, both domestic and international.

"Since ADA's founding in 1947, the Annual Voting Records have served as the standard measure of political liberalism," the group's website says.

Americans for Democratic Action has "enthusiastically" endorsed John F. Kerry for president, noting that Kerry will raise the federal minimum wage; reverse "tax cuts for the wealthy"; "return U.S. foreign policy to its historical roots in human rights and multilateralism"; bar privatization of Social Security; and "respect the constitutional separation of church and state."

"The presidential election of 2004 presents the most significant choice American voters will make in their lifetime," the group says on its website. "ADA pledges to work actively and vigorously to ensure John F. Kerry's election."

Since your response contained a great deal of assumptions I am going to let it stand on its own. Apparently, you missed the "assume" lesson in first year.

At least Edwards is reeeeeeeeeeeal cute. And he has that wonderful Carolina accent! But he's a real lightweight when it comes to bringing in votes and I understand he took the right turn blinker out of all of his vehicles. Like Kerry.

Being a dumbcrat, we already know he's anti-business. Since any corporation is closely akin to being the anti Christ, its perfectly fitting that he would be a lawyer that made his fortune demonizing insurance companys or any company that sold envelopes to someone in the asbestos business, etc. Because of ambulance chasers like Edwards, I'm thinking about leaving instructions to my family to sue J.C. Penny in the event of my death. It had to be all those damn clothes!

Anyway, the problem is not just another greedy lawyer, the problem is stupid juries that allow themselves to be unduly influenced by greedy lawyers.

Remember , he's a dumbcrat. Never take personal responsibility when you can blame another person or , even better, an evil corporation. Those cigarettes made me smoke 'em and that gun manufacturer made me buy the gun and the ammo and load it and shoot that burglar with it. Whose family is now suing me because I shot the thieving bas&#** .

Seriously folks, Edwards is just more of the same. He's just better looking and we should ALL empathize with him because he and his wife have lost a child. At least, the media thinks it's important that we know that. Wonder why?

Gentleman Johnny has this year to date received more than 9 million dollars (of the 19 million total received in election year cylce 2004) from
lawyers and lobbyists. And TO WHOM will he be beholden????/quote]

And now on top of all us Vets against Kerry, theoretically there should be
a "soccermomsagainst Kerry" website, now that he's acquired the new baggage.....
"As a result of [John Edwards'] lawsuits, there are now more than four times as many Caesarean sections as there were in 1970. But curiously, there has been no change in the rate of babies born with cerebral palsy. As The New York Times reported: "Studies indicate that in most cases, the disorder is caused by fetal brain injury long before labor begins." All those Caesareans have, however, increased the mother's risk of death, hemorrhage, infection, pulmonary embolism and Mendelson's syndrome."

We've got one anti-war activist (Traitor), and one trial lawyer (ambulance chaser). Plus they both are left of Teddy Kennedy and Hillary Clinton!

Can you say 'socialist losers'?

I knew that you could!

Woof!

Careful, H3, in talking about Little Johnny. You see, being from and living in South Carolina, we poor dumb southerners know a lot more than you ever will about Little Johnny. You can support him all you want, that's your right, but folks who know him and of him, if pushed, will start to pull the facade back. And, defending people against powerful corporations?? How about finding out a bit more about the lawsuits against OB/GYN's he has
'championed' concerning 'birth defects' or maybe about the 30 times he has had to pay delinquent taxes on his Raleigh home and cars over the past 10 years. Yes, my friend, take great care on talking up a local boy
here.

I have to laugh when the talking heads on CNN say that John Edwards will help Kerry win in the south. These folks have been watching way to many Andy Griffith reruns on TV Land.

I was born in the North - but I've lived down here long enough to know that my county here in North FL (which is really Southern Georgia) will vote the same way it did in the last Presidential election....4-1 for President Bush. JE is a lightweight and the fact that he has a sugary southern drawl and gentlemanly demeanor will mean squat come election time. The more I think about this ticket - the more I like it. A liberal North Easterner and a wanna-be country bumpkin with no experience - what more could you want.....

Some people are commenting on the fact that they can't keep their hands off each other. AOL News (sorry, it pops up every time I sign on) ran five photos of the two either hugging, holding hands or patting each other on the back. I'm not saying they are weird, I'm saying that it seems like they are trying way too hard to show the voters that they are the perfect team.
The same news source last week said that Edwards was not Kerry's first choice since he did not meet any of the criteria that Kerry had established for a running mate.
I read a post last week (either here or on Top 10 Weasels) that said that higher-ups in the DNC insisted on Edwards because they felt he could bring in more votes from the rural areas where Kerry comes off looking like a snobbish rich yankee.
