Surviving Beyond Iowa


Edwards has launched an anti Clinton website. Via
WSJ
:


Former North Carolina Sen. and Democratic presidential candidate John Edwards
launched a Web site today that takes a cloaked strike at front-runner Sen.
Hillary Clinton. … ..

In keeping with Edwards’s increasingly strident (some would say angry)
stump rhetoric, the site includes an “outrage of the day.” The
debut outrage takes on credit-card companies, which the former North Carolina
senator all but accuses of usury by deliberately making credit contracts opaque
and confusing to the average consumer. The site says credit-card companies
and banks have spent nearly $750 million on political contributions and lobbying
since 1998. … ..

Many political operatives — including some close to Edwards —
suggest his kid-glove treatment of Obama makes political sense. It’s
likely that the only way Edwards — or Obama for that matter —
can survive a second-place finish in Iowa is if Clinton finishes third. Edwards
lags far behind the other top candidates in fund-raising and has said in the
past that his success depends on a good performance in Iowa. Edwards signaled
his Iowa strategy in a recent meeting with reporters in Des Moines. “The
differences between Sen. Clinton and myself are much more dramatic than the
differences between me and Sen. Obama,” he said.

America Belongs to Us. It just doesn’t belong to the Clintons or anyone who dares to support Hillary. Got that?
