49. Inuendo is an amazing tilting tactic. Compare-Obama/Kennedy; Edwards/FDR
The MSM never does the latter only the former. John is more impassioned than Obama and definitely more realistic about how to accomplish it. John is more aware of the urgency of dealing with what is rather than what we hope will be..
Obama's change will be too slow, like saying we really need to do something to reverse the effects of global warming vs raising emissions standards and changing energy policies immediately rather than continuing to give tax breaks to big oil to find alternative energy sources(they have no incentive to do that since it will decrease their profits. Remember for years they paid scientist to deny global warming so Obama's inviting them to discuss how to change...I think you see what I mean) John says we do it now in spite of these corps and their lobbyists.
Love 'em both but we need John Edwards as his is the only "real" change.
Big oil, Big pharm, Big ins, Big communications corps etc....are trying to give us Obama or Clinton because they feel they can "gum 'em to death" in discussions etc. but not so with John and they are going out of their way to stop him. Time for us to stand up and take the country back from these same "economic royalists" that FDR battled to save our nation. We need John Edwards.( ps. no matter which dem we nominate they will be the next president. Electability is not an issue in this election...period. None of the GOP field is electable...none. this last GOP debate should have reinforced that beyond doubt. You know this.)
