20. I like Edwards, but this is another example of his camp's historical revisionism
Another example being Elizabeth's sudden revelation that Edwards wanted to fight the Ohio vote and pleaded with Kerry to do so.

Then there was the recent revelation that "advisors made John Edwards support the war."

Now Elizabeth suddenly "debunks" what has been a known fact: Edwards was in the DLC.

But here, on his official website and blog, is Edwards listed as a former member of the Senate New Democrat Coalition:

Consder the three issues at play here: Voting irregularities, the Iraq war, and the DLC. Three issues that are red meat to the netroots. And three issues that, in the last several months, have been "repackaged" on Edward's bio.

Pandering. Pure and simple.
