We were so close, we could see the whites of his eyes. I must say, he was pretty awesome and very handsome, unfortunate haircut though. And I will most likely vote for him in Montana's ridiculously late primary (thanks Kathy). I have always liked him. I thought he was better than Kerry, nay I knew he was better than Kerry.
What struck me as unusual was during his speech, he was much more liberal than I expected. Free college for everyone. Unabashedly pro-union. Anti-cooperate farming. And much to the chagrin of Shaky McSchweitzer, anti-coal fired power. You go John Edwards.
Shocker - the Missoulian has much better coverage on Edwards than the IR. Ooooh - the New West article is by far the best!

Did E say anything about choice or women's issues? That may seal the deal for me too....
No, he didn't say anything during his speech, but if you check out this link, he is solid, VERY SOLID.

“I strongly support a woman’s right to privacy and reproductive choices. It is essential to the full equality and dignity of women, and today it is under attack. I will guarantee this right.”
– John Edwards
Don't get me wrong I am not saying that he is better than his opponents - Hillary, Barack, Kucinich and Richardson are all good on choice.
