From ArchPundit, looks like that trial lawyer rap isn't quite as bad as the GOP hoped:
"Only 28.4% say being a trial lawyer negatively affects their opinion of Edwards. 54.8% says that background makes them think he fights for the average person."
Fact is, there's a lot of lawyers out there. Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon says that quite a few people are lawyers, are married to lawyers, have lawyer friends, have hired lawyers or are studying to become lawyers, and aren't going to listen to congressmen who used to be lawyers when they try to push this "lawyers are bad" crapola.
