they went quietly to the floor of the senate, cast the right vote, but there is a difference between 'leadership' and 'legislating'."- Edwards. "john, the fact is, is that i opposed this war from the start. so you are about four and a half years late on leadership on this issue."- barack obama to john Edwards. Obama shined for me against edwards although i believe hillary had a slllllllllight edge over him coz none of her rivals could really take her out. too bad the illinois senator didn't show the same sort of gumption, as he did against edwards, against front-runner clinton to whom, instead, he displayed a rather continuous deference. :D NM governor- bill richardson sounded like Kerry with his "i have a plan" monologues. :P CT senator- Chris Dodd was first rate. Dennis Kucinich did a pretty good job raising some very good points. :-) LooTe
