You miss the point, but we made that easy. I don't dislike doctors or love lawyers particularly or at all. While that may seem to be the message this thread conveyed, it really was not what was intended.

The point was that Edwards being a good lawyer, as evidenced by him winning cases against doctors and large insurance companies for his clients, does not make him a bad candidate for Vice President, or somehow evil. That was really the whole point. The discussion got a little off track when an implication that anyone suing doctors was somehow guilty of misrepresenting their clients if they won a case that involved a good size financial settlement.
