18. It was so obvious, Edwards was petrified to give a long lengthy answer..

I could smell fear coming right through my tv..Not very presidential, if I say so myself..and just did!

27. You are denying the polls then?

Edwards is dead last throughout the country...He lived in Iowa for 4 yrs using his non-profit PAC money to subsidies his presence running seminars and training for his upcoming run. Why can't he just be honest about the damage he's done to middle class America with his championing Credit Card companies and his over the top support of the Bankruptcy Reform Bill?

All we ask is, why doesn't he come clean, while he can?

Ya know, Clinton supporters would be much more effective if they didn't do this sort of bait and switch thing ~ and if they admitted when their campaign makes mistakes (such as you admitting that Bill Clinton was trying to trick people this week).

Good grief, the clip was played on every show there is ~ it's obvious what he was trying to do.

Honestly, you people don't help Hillary this way. (I'm not kidding.)

32. I think of it as equal time..The bashing about the Clintons

over some crackpot article as opposed to serious candor about a presidential candidate who's Senate vote has hurt many people, is something that needs to be brought to the fore. Especially where he play the "Honest John" card constantly.

No matter how you slice it, Edwards is a hypocrite!

Edited on Thu Nov-29-07 09:11 PM by polichick

I find the tactics amusing ~ but it doesn't help bring people around to your cause.

(It wasn't about a crackpot article ~ it was about Bill Clinton lying to the people, something that still doesn't go over too well and reminds of past indiscretions.)

36. Dead last? Nope. second, third, and every once in a while first, depending on

the poll. Dead last would be Gravel. next to Last would be Richardson. Dodd. biden. kucinich.

35. Tellurian runs from thread to thread saying I hate Edwards. I hate Edwards.

Actually that would be more honest. Tellurian tries to convince everyone else that Hillary is THE ONE......
and strings out long sentences full of nasty adjectives against Edwards.

40. That's simply not true but nice try

From what I've seen, Tellurian has pretty much let Edwards off the hook so far, maybe because Edwards isn't much of a threat to Hillary? :shrug:

42. I See Your Animus GROWING Against Any Candidate Except Clinton

each and every day! Supporting a candidate is well and good, but there is a group of you who constantly berate JRE and Obama (although not as much) with such negative and nasty remarks. Is this an agenda or are all of you just trying to goad others into arguments??

I'm sorry, I can't understand or respect the way you're going about this. I'm sorry you feel you feel the NEED to be so OBTRUSIVE!!

I don't recall you FINALLY admitting that Bill Clinton was in fact trying to trick people into believing he'd been against the war all along.

What is it with you Clinton supporters???

5. I thought he did great.

I'm a big fan of John Edwards. While Biden is my first choice, one has to be impressed with JE's poise and dedication to domestic issues. He's a good man.

26. He lied. He claimed he chose to take matching funds for moral reasons...

He just said "This is an election, not an auction," and said he was "proud of the fact" that he "agreed to take public financing," and he "did it for a reason." :eyes: Please. Yeah-he DID do it for a reason-he didn't raise as much as he THOUGHT he would! Back in Feb. he agreed to FOREGO public financing.

44. YOU lied. You claimed that you were born of a woman and not a jackal ...

THAT's how you attack someone. Your sad half-attempt to pretend that Edwards has funding problems when he's the Democrat who has more funds than Richardson, Biden, Dodd, Kucinich, and Gravel put together is transparent, tiresome, and unconvincing.

Sheesh!
