John Edwards pulls no punches: accuses Democrats of "caving" on Iraq

By aggressively challenging Congress when it became apparent they would strip timelines from the Iraq funding bill, John Edwards earned considerable respect from voters who want and end to the war.

Unswayed by Harry Reid's pleas for patience, he's now scolding the Democratic leadership for giving in to Bush's veto threat:

"Washington failed America today when Congress surrendered to the president's demand for another blank check that prolongs the war in Iraq. It is time for this war to end."
