John Edwards according to some...

the fact that Edwards sued corporations on citizens' behalf does not necessarily mean he intentionally worked to help those citizens

he *may* have wanted to help them.... but "helping" them could have just been incidental to his practice of filing lawsuits as a way to get wealthy

we'll never know...

the fact he now claims that his main intent was not to get rich but to help the plaintiffs does not prove anything

Edwards strikes me as very lightweight

last night's debates were the first I've ever watched.....

i must say Edwards got a free ride from the media when it came to his facial expressions.....talk about looking angry

mmmmmmm yeah....

right...

sure...

3. and no matter how much someone else thinks not

the fact of the matter is John Edwards speaks to me about my problems and wants to help me with them. Substitute us all for the me and you know where I am coming from

John Edwards at this point is winning by staying above the fray that will ultimately turn so many off to the Anointed ones, Barrak and Hillary

5. Hi, madokie. Yep. He's a good man. I also agree that he and Elizabeth

make a great team -- I can see from your avatar that you know what I'm talking about.

7. The last thing we need is another detached pResident

Senator soon to be President Edwards is still close enough to us to feel our pain, to know what our fears are, to be able to see our dreams for our families and our countries future, he hasn't been removed from the ranks of the backbone to our country. He is as much of a 'down home boy' and I say that with love and admiration, as we have ever had as a possible President, in my lifetime anyway.

I simply love him and his family, As our President he will give us many reasons to be proud.

He is the real deal

2. just heard on Stephanie Miller a caller that those caucus goers were told

not to vote for someone who promotes Unions like Edwards or lose their jobs did anyone hear that who is listening to Stephanie Miller. Terrible what they are doing to Edwards.

6. I guess I would have lost my job, then, along with screaming the reason why, from the rooftops.

4. Underneath Edwards "facial expressions" beats a heart for the working class and the

less fortunate.

We are the sum of our parts.

Edwards has all the right parts to lead reform in this country, and would make an stellar President.
