Edwards differs with Miller on South
RALEIGH — The conflict between presidential candidates John Edwards and former Vermont Gov. Howard Dean in the Democratic debate Tuesday night overshadowed questions about the North Carolina senator’s view of Georgia Sen. Zell Miller. The moderator reminded Edwards that he had once said, "It’s absolutely critical that Democrats reach out to people like Zell Miller." Now, with Miller endorsing President Bush and promoting his new book, A National Party No More: The Conscience of a Conservative Democrat, Edwards answered that he "disagreed with Zell Miller, obviously" and that Miller does not speak for most Southerners.
