5. We were discussing his stance on poverty.
I am very encouraged, actually. She's a bushbot from way back, but she feels that Edwards has a better plan for the country than anyone else.

I think we are going to see a lot of republicans doing the same. My best friend from college's family is personal friends with Cheney, (her dad was a HUGH supporter of the Republican party prior to donation limitations) and they were all supporting Dodd first, then Edwards.

I think it's encouraging for us as a party to say the least, regardless of who an individual supports in the primaries.

7. She also indicated that she thinks Elizabeth would make a
wonderful First Lady. I do as well, but it was surprising to hear from her.
