The Difference Between Edwards And Hillary

Yes, the Democratic candidates are similar in many regards. They're all anti-Bush for starters, but there are marked differences between all of them. One important contrast making its way through the blogosphere today is a story about a union on strike and the owner of the company that is being protested. Unions have plenty to do with politics, but this example goes directly to John Edwards and Hillary Clinton and what they represent.

From KTIV:

It started as a political photo-op... with democrat John Edwards rallying with union workers on strike from Standard Ready Mix Concrete.

But, the scene turned tumultuous when union workers say they scuffled with the company's president.

During John Edwards campaign stop, Standard Ready Mix owner, Mark Jensen walked out with camera in hand. He also brought out a "Hillary for President" sign.

John Edwards, "Cute, that's cute."

To Hillary's credit, she wasn't there nor is she officially connected to Mr. Jensen. She did not have anything to do with this bully and him charging $20 for people to drive their cars out of his lot without telling them when they drove in (see the link above for more details). Yet the important thing is to see where people stand and what side they are on. I am on the people's side and John Edwards seems to be standing closely by.

Hillary is nowhere to be found with the Teamsters. She said she'd rather take Washington lobbyist money, you can check here to see where she gets her big dollars from. It certainly isn't from working people that need a break from the corporate culture that this nation is suffering from.
