Edwards criticizes Obama's invoking of Reagan

HENDERSON -- John Edwards criticized Barack Obama mentioning Ronald Reagan as a president of change during a campaign stop today.

"My view is I would never use Ronald Reagan as an example of change," said Edwards. "When you think about what Ronald Reagan did to the American people, to the middle class to the working people. He was openly – openly – intolerant of unions and the right to organize."

A recent poll shows Obama, Edwards and Hillary Clinton in a tie within the margin of error.
