| 4. I do not doubt that he did NOT know the details at the time he was asked. |

indeed he was very wise to answer the question as he did given the Congress' penchant for writing a bill, voting on it and then later altering it in committee so stop trying to put words into his mouth or thoughts into his head which aren't his thank you very much.
If he had said "I'm for it" then he could have been trapped in the John Kerry trap of having say "I was for it before I was against it" that got Kerry into so much trouble with the Republicans in 2004.
Instead he chose to articulate his OWN position clearly and forthrightly rather than tie himself to a bill over which he has no control.
Edwards is a candidate who knows how to not screw up for a change!
Vote Edwards in 2008.
