People standing up with comments on this article "The Peoples Candidate"
In an article posted in Reuters

MANCHESTER, N.H--John Edwards rolled into New Hampshire hoping that his anti-corporate populist message will triumph over the money and celebrity appeal of Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton.

At an early morning rally in an old mill building, the son of a millworker said Iowa voters sent a message for change and now voters must decide which change-oriented candidate they prefer.

"I am not the candidate of money," he said. "I am not the candidate of glitz. I am not the candidate of glamor. I am the candidate for president of the United States who is the people's candidate."

Elizabeth Edwards introduced her husband as the Seabiscuit of the Democratic race and the candidate quickly embraced the metaphor. "On Tuesday we're going to surprise American" he said, referring to next week's primary.



It is not so much the artile.....CHECK OUT THE COMMENTS.... people are standing up for JRE and the lack of coverage, even some Obama people have commented...VERY NICE....

It is time the M$M stop deciding who will be the next POTUS, we ALL want FAIR AND EQUAL.

2. Good grief... good to see the American people coming together in agreement over
something as crucial as the MSM and press bias. I hope the voices are being heard.
