John Edwards grew up in a Carolina milltown, made a killing as a trial attorney, lost a son, won a US Senate seat, ran for president (and came closer than you might recall in the Democratic primaries), and ran on the '04 White House ticket with John Kerry -- all before he was out of his forties.
Now, John Edwards is 53. He's road-tested in presidential campaign politics. And he's back: running for the US presidency, again, in the '08 battle.
If last time he was the Democrat's smiling centrist, this time John Edwards is talking tougher as the fed-up populist. He's fed up with poverty and what he calls the "two Americas," the Iraq war, and saying "get out".
