Among the positions examined in chart format with comments are:
Repeal tax cuts for wealthy
Patriot Act
Abortion
US out of Iraq
Same-sex
domestic partnership
benefits
Teacher led prayer in school
Mandatory
3 strikes
sentencing laws
Death penalty
etc. etc. etc.
*Why Edwards? Perhaps because up till last week, more kossacks [members of the dailykos blog] favored Edwards than any other candidate. Judging from the last straw poll of members, Obama appears to be slightly leading Edwards among kossacks now and Clinton remains a distant third.
