1. Only RWers think it's a bad thing, and it is - for them!

JEdwards went after companies that made defective products that caused severe injuries (a young girl had her intestines sucked out by a defective pool drain). The pool drain company had continued to make the same drain design - even when it already had documented evidence of at least a dozen other injuries. Uh, until John Edwards put a stop to that. Wonder how many other baby innards were saved?

I also remember at least one suit against a doctor that was obviously at fault in a very serious brain damage case involving an infant also. Wonder how many other parents were saved this agony due to John Edwards shedding light on this doctor?

RWers hate him because he is a personal injury lawyer - you know, the little people against the big biz kind.
