And I say this with the most respect - if Edwards doesn't get the nomination, and since he has said he won't accept another VP nod, I would whole heartedly support him for Attorney General.

3. Word.
Much respect and aloha for John Edwards and Elizabeth. Sad the voters aren't seeing how tremendously valuable his message is.

5. I'm surprised he's fading...his message was to tap into the anger
and frustration of the electorate, which I thought was pretty smart. Good thing I don't advise campaigns.

6. Thanks, but are you talking about Nevada?
Yes, Nevada was disappointing (and congratulations to Hillary and her supporters).

The primaries are far from over, no matter how much the media wants to call the whole thing off right now and get into the meat of the national race.

BTW, unlike many on DU, I do respect all of our candidates and will vote for whoever wins the nomination without hesitation. Until the nomination, though, I'm sticking with Edwards.

8. Im sorry too
I'm sorry SOME Obama supporters keep posting thread after thread for days telling Edwards to leave the race.

Edwards can stay in as long as he damn well pleases.

9. And I'm sorry that Clinton supporters are doing that
http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=132x4118838

Or are you going to claim that that thread was really started by an Obama supporter?

11. Few Obamites have any class. This thread shows most Hilarites do
If it is all over I am going to switch to Hillary. I will still wait until Super Tuesday and hope Edwards can win a few states to stay alive. There is still a chance now that he might drop out after South Carolina, though. :( :cry:

16. Thanks Hillbots
I'll wait until after super turdsday but if that point comes and goes and Edwards is not even going to be a kingmaker............well, I'm going to remember the kinder words of the Hillshills rather than the constant attacks of racism that came from the Obamabots because I dared to want a populist over a guy who is channeling Reagan, hates gays, and has zip, zero experience in anything other than making himself a name.

Also, as a disabled person I can't afford Obama fucking with my SSD because my family is barely surviving now. They both suck on free trade. They both suck on the war. But Hillary at least has a clue and won't sell off social security to wall street. Thats a start I guess.

I've sworn up and down I would never vote for the DLC but if its a choice between a southern baptist preacher who wants to fellate republicans and Hillary, welp, at least she is eye candy.
