Edwards is a fighter
He won't give up just because one state liked the corporate, bipartisan Obama.

2. John speaks for the disenfranchised, middle class or not.
I'm so glad he took second. Elizabeth said they were outspent 6 to 1. :wow:

Go, John!

5. I disagree. Strongly.
I like John, but his speech was kind of frenetic and a little desperate. Just my .02.

14. I was POSITIVE John was going to win

13. I agree, he got his message out, which is not about him. That's why Tweety thought it strange.

15. Edwards was MEGA inspiring tonight!
I like him, but I am still having trouble with his vote in favor of the IWR. But for that, I could support him.

20. Sure am...
poster was concerned that Edwards voted in favor of IWR. I was presenting the choice, on this issue, between his vote and Obama's campaigning for Joe "the Hawk" Lieberman. Edwards regrets his vote, Obama campaigned for someone who is chomping at the bit to invade Iran. Talk is cheap.

22. Voting for the IWR far exceeds supporting that little smuck from CT.
How many people died cuz of supporting Lieberman? How many died cuz of the IWR? Hmmmmmm.....I think we are dealing with apples and oranges. And Gore ran with that POS from CT in 2000...does that make Al Gore a bad person?

23. I disagree
Lieberman is a known chicken hawk who will not rest until more people die. He gives Bush "bipartisan" cover so that people think outlandish ideas are middle of the road. No, Obama's support of Lieberman is much worse because it not only accepts all of Lieberman's decisions (IWR included), but his desire to bomb Iran. Obama is okay with the Lieberman IWR decision, so why is Edwards worse? Sorry, deal with it.
