Edwards Mocks Cheney for EBay Comment
I like this Edwards guy! Oh yeah, he's my senator. ;-)

Don't forget to rate it on yahoo! Link below.

By CARRIE SPENCER, Associated Press Writer

PIKETON, Ohio - Democratic vice presidential candidate John Edwards on Thursday poked fun at Vice President Dick Cheney's claim that economic indicators fail to measure the financial gains of Americans selling items on eBay.

"He said people are selling a lot of stuff on eBay. When we count the bake sales and lemonade stands, we'll have a roaring economy," Edwards told a union hall rally.

6. rate it 5! man, what a funny comment. ebay may or may not be a good
source of income for a lot of people, but it is certainly not a replacement for steady work for hundreds of thousands of people.

10. Sorry,
But this is a plus/minus situation. If anyone here hasn't seen it, there was an Edwards rally in WV and supposedly people ripped a sign out of a 3-year girls hand and ripped it up. It was on Yahoo earlier, therefore I fear that if people see this great speech by Edwards, they are likely to come across that article also. I don't know, it could be staged, who knows. But it didn't make us look good.

14. demgrrrll
Can I ?

I thought that I had to be a member for a certain period of time or number of posts to link it.

OK, if I can't do it, I just checked with Yahoo again and if you go to the news photos section and enter "Edwards" (can never have too many choices in wallpaper for the ol' 'puter :-) - it now appears on the first search page. Not good.
