With a week remaining before the early state results arrive from Iowa and New Hampshire, John Edwards is starting to draw significant Netroots endorsements. In the last few days, I've read several:
I find it no coincidence that as John Edwards has (a) sharpened his populist rhetoric and (b) improved his standing in the race that (c) more progressive bloggers are ready to jump in with support.
Consistently, the candidates and politicians who have gained the most Netroots attention (Dean, Lamont, the veteran in Ohio whose name I can't remember now, Darcy Burner, Gore v. 2008, Senator Dodd v. 2008) are the ones who clearly articulate contrasts between Democratic and Republican values. Of the top 3 Democratic contenders, John Edwards is drawing the sharpest contrasts.
