We're mainstream.

Neil the Ethical Werewolf examines a new Pew poll and finds an encouraging word...
Despite being the most progressive of the three major candidates, with his perfect pro-choice voting record as a Senator from North Carolina, his opposition to funding the war, and his hard-core economic liberalism on health care and poverty, Edwards is still seen as more moderate than any other Democrat.
Maybe it's because support for personal privacy,opposition to the war and economic liberalism are moderate views in America. That's why, as Neil points out, Edwards just may be...
...the kind of candidate who not only wins a general election, but moves the country left without people realizing what's happening.
Or just brings folks to realize that despite Republican lies and media fog, the country has already moved and has been waiting for politicians to catch up.
