Cynicism, cynicism, nuance

Or is it just me?



Fine, the candidates didn't select these pull quotes--and Edwards, in particular, showed more depth of thought in his full quotes here than the lede would suggest. How utterly cool that Sojourners sponsored a forum to ask the Democratic candidates about their faith. It's great to see liberals making faith an issue with other liberals--it distorts reality when Democrats treat their beliefs as something to be trotted out only in front of Republicans.

Edwards was asked to name the biggest sin he ever committed, and couldn't pick just one. Fascinating to picture him coming up with a specific answer, isn't it? How would you answer that question?
