First of all, hello from snowy NE OHIO :hi:


Edwards put his mind to work during his 20 years of practical, real life work.

In order to win, Edwards had to be able to direct his paralegals, and other attorneys to do research on many areas. His team had to deliver the goods, they had to provide accurate information, and work within the scope of the law. Edwards had to be able to execute his strategy in a real time, real environment, making adjustments and countering opponents arguments.

These are valuable and real skills applied to real life situations, taking on big guns.

Edwards and his law parter were small compared to the huge corporate law firms they went up against. Edwards ability to plan, stragegize and execute are stellar qualities of leadership.

His senate term was enough experience to season him to the ways of DC.

Just think about this primary election season.

Obama and Clinton have made this the most historic race ever....in all of history....and while Edwards has been outspent by gargantuan proportions, his message and his vision have kept him in the race.

That alone makes me sit up and take notice.

Thanks.
