COLUMBIA, S.C. - For Democratic presidential hopeful John Edwards, even the press credentials have to send a message.
When journalists arrived at Edwards’ primary night party location to pick up credentials, they found an interesting quote on them: ”Representing the Grown-Up Wing of the Democratic Party”.
Edwards, who was born in South Carolina and needs a win in the state since he has yet to place first in the early voting contests, accused his two Democratic opponents, Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama, of squabbling instead of talking about policy during the last debate earlier this week that was seen as extremely contentious.
The 54-year-old former senator from North Carolina has seized on tit-for-tat attacks between Clinton and Obama as a chance to urge voters to choose him because he is a “grown-up”.
