Edwards is for ending Bush taxcuts for wealthy IMMEDIATELY, Not letting them expire in 2010...

Making clear actual factual differences between the candidates should assist all voters in deciding which Candidate should get their vote. Here is an example.

The News & Observer in Raleigh, NC today reports:

"The leading Democratic contenders have suggested they would roll back Bush's cuts for households with incomes above $200,000 a year, or roughly the top 2 percent of earners. Sens. Hillary Rodham Clinton and Barack Obama would let these cuts expire at the end of 2010. John Edwards would try to abolish the cuts immediately."

4. The corps are going to pull out the stops on this man like nobody's business

If (WHEN!!!) he wins our nom, the shit will furiously hit the fan even before the last of the confetti hits the convention hall floor.

I hope he made the right decision to go with public financing until the fall.

5. Part of the problem with the MSM is they muddle and confuse the differences between the candidates..

Voters deserve to know the differences between the candidates in making up their minds which will receive their votes.

When the differences between the candidates are 'muddled' it makes it easier for candidates to 'triangulate' their positions, and voters tend to respond to broad statements that might not correspond to their actual beliefs.

There is nothing wrong with candidates having different positions on an issue, just as most problems have more than one approach to solving them.

Factual accuracy is the starting point to make a valid comparison.
