3899957, John Edwards: Obama 'Living in Never-Never Land'?

I'm posting this to clarify what Edwards really said since another post completely misrepresented it.

Here's the link:

Friday morning at a forum for undecided voters in Independence, Iowa, Edwards repeated his implicit criticism of Obama, saying any candidate who thinks he or she can invite corporate America to the table and achieve real results for Americans "is living in never-never land."

So he believes Barack Obama lives in never-never land?

"If he believes that, yes," Edwards said. "It's a little hard for me to tell sometimes based on the way he talks about this. I've heard him say he would give stakeholders a seat at the table. I assume he's talking about oil companies, drug companies and insurance companies."


So it had nothing to do with Pakistan. It was the same criticism Edwards has been offering the entire campaign. He didn't name Obama. It was an implied criticism like he's been doing and all the other candidates have been doing.
