Quote Of The Day

"You can’t nice these people to death. You’d better send somebody into that arena who’s ready."

-- John Edwards, quoted by the New York Times, referring how Sen. Barack Obama would deal with insurance companies and drug companies.

I don't think there's much dispute that having a personal injury attorney, a successful one at that, would be a good choice to go into negotiations with insurance companies. Here's hoping his rise in the polls is Edwards peaking at the right time.
