Down scale Dems...
First off, that's an insult to real people that don't deserve such a demeaning label. Shame on the press.

Secondly, if I remember correctly Edwards tended to get the more educated voters, Obama was in the middle, and Clinton lower on the scale.

Maybe that bodes well for Obama. I have no clue how Edwards people in general will go to be honest.

But I just want people to know I resent the "down scale Dems" remark.

I grew up on AFDC, food stamps, and federally subsidized housing. I've never been downscale anything. Now that I am a physician with a comfortable income I am no more upscale than the carpenter, factory worker, or gas station cashier that I serve in my office.

We are all just people trying to take care of our families, do the right thing, and maybe get a leg up in the world and pave the way for our kids.

Thanks for letting me get that off my chest.
