I have to speak up for Mr. Edwards, as I am from NC, and democrats here are few and far between. I don't necessarily agree with the large sums of money that attorneys receive from cases, but to me, that's a "don't hate the player, hate the game" type of issue. And the victim does usually receive a substanital amount. (like in a $5,000,000 award, if the attorney receives $1,650,000, the victim is still left with $3,350,000) Law school is expensive, and unless you work for legal aide or are a public defender, most lawyers are very well paid. And I think that Tort Law is worse, by far, as the attorneys in those cases gain so much income from the cases and the victims often receive money not even worth mentioning.
ceecee79 Reviewed by ceecee79 on . Obama/Edwards My hope right now is for this Dem ticket, having voted Rep all my life I find no one there who inspires me. I can't stand Hillary, and Gore is old news. Of them all I like Obama the most, with Edwards in a distant second. They both favor medical marijuana, and Obama is a very bright man with good ideas. I hope he can make some real changes in DC, we've needed it for a very long time. Rating: 5
