    John Kerry v. John Edwards

    I'd have to go with John Edwards. I think John Kerry is a twat, but I am rather impressed with John Edwards. You can't make 200+ million practicing law in 20 years unless you're sharp.
    I ain't no damn noobie. Bitch.

              It's the Democrats' Bush-Cheney team: Brilliant VP, not so much for the prez.

              You can't have manslaughter without laughter.

              "Son," he said without preamble, "never trust a man who doesn't drink because he's probably a self-righteous sort, a man who thinks he knows right from wrong all the time. Some of them are good men, but in the name of goodness, they cause most of the suffering in the world. They're the judges, the meddlers. And, son, never trust a man who drinks but refuses to get drunk. They're usually afraid of something deep down inside, either that they're a coward or a fool or mean and violent. You can't trust a man who's afraid of himself. But sometimes, son, you can trust a man who occasionally kneels before a toilet. The chances are that he is learning something about humility and his natural human foolishness, about how to survive himself. It's damned hard for a man to take himself too seriously when he's heaving his guts into a dirty toilet bowl."

                  Thus why it is so difficult to receive decent medical care/ health coverage because all the good doctors are losing everything to bs malpractice lawsuits. I hate laywer scum.

                    AMen to that. Lawyers are the scum of the earth.

                          You're free to think whatever you like about attorneys being scum, etc., but I would challenge you to cite me any objective authority that supports the idea that lawyers have impacted your ability to receive decent health care.

                            Re:: John Kerry v. John Edwards

                            First, Edwards didn't make that much money...he was a plaintiff's lawyer in North Carolina, which is not a state of the monstrous verdicts. His net worth is estimated somewhere in the neighborhood of $20 million (give or take a few mil).

                            Second, I think it's a toss-up as to who's smarter. They're both lawyers who have been extremely successful in their careers, both public and private. I'm just glad Kerry picked Edwards to be his running mate.
