I recently received an angry e-mail from a reader who was sure I’m a supporter of universal health coverage. He was right, but what struck me was his suggestion that this makes me a terrorist-hugging jihadist. I suspected the genius didn’t come up with this brilliant notion on his own, and sure enough, a quick Google search turned up the likely culprit. It was no surprise…

From Rolling Stone.

In head-to-head polling against the likes of Rudy Giuliani and Mitt Romney, Clinton and Obama have managed to post only modest leads. Edwards, by contrast, not only bests every Republican candidate in the race, he trounces them — by an average of twelve points.

Naturally, that means the Democrats won’t nominate Edwards.
