Daymen there. My view of the event, and particularly of the differences between Clinton and Edwards, were much more in line with what Grist reported than what was repoted here. I thought that Senator Clinton got into much greater detail on her plans, both in her ten minute speech, and in her responses to questions. Edwards speech, and the two responses of his that I stayed for (I admit leaving a few minutes early to avoid the parking lot gridlock that I was sure would follow the event) were vague, and unspecific. He called for sacrifice, but didn't seem to know what needed to be sacrificed or why. I do admit some bias going in here, I am very supportive of Senator Clinton's run for the Whitehouse. I have been to several events that she has spoken at over the last 24 months, and at every one of them she has mentioned energy independence and its link to climate change. I have not heard the same from the other candidates.<br/><br/>Justin I also attended the Forum, although I sadly missed meeting My. Daymen there.
