Am I the only one that has noticed-

[asdjrocky]

How many times they say, "John has talked about this." Or, "John touched on this earlier." Or, "I agree with John on this."

Seriously, is is just me?

[polichick]

1. No - they're really lovin' John up tonight! nt

[iris5426]

2. no they have done it in every debate and they're doing it again tonight nt

[Glimmer of Hope]

3. I think they like each other.

[ursi]

4. you are hearing correctly!

John is forcing the conversations tonight!

[asdjrocky]

7. As he has throughout the campaign.

[jannyk]

5. No - it's not just you - he tries to steal John's thunder!

[OneGrassRoot]

6. What I notice is that Clinton and Obama include John...

regardless of their possible agendas, they INCLUDE him.

It would be respectful for their supporters and the media to see that he is very relevant here (perhaps after this debate more than they allwould like).

[OneGrassRoot]

8. But I got your point, rocky, and agree. :) n/t

[stravu9]

9. No, I See It TOO!

John Rocks!

10. I think Obama is making a point of gesturing to JE and dissing Hillary.

Not sure if it's strategic or just a natural aversion to her.

[asdjrocky]

14. But they are both doing it-

And they've both done it at least a few times.

11. There's a reason ...

They don't see him as a threat.

I'm not trying to be a jerk here ... I really do believe that's why.

12. Even if he does not win, he is influencing the party

And in a positive way.

15. I want Edwards to win South Carolina!

[aquart]

17. Me, too.

[The River]

16. Natural Leaders Take The Lead

followers just quote them.

[asdjrocky]

18. Well said River.

[The River]

19. Thanks

When I get a bit discouraged
I find one of your posts and become re-energized.
The fact that John is driving the debate is more than
enough reason to support him through to the convention.

[asdjrocky]

20. That's really nice of you to say.

And yeah, no matter what the MSM does with it, this debate has got me pumped.

[Seabiscuit]

21. I've noticed for several debates now. Clearly its John Edwards who sets the discussion points & tone

I think its a compliment to John Edwards that they admire him so, I just wish the assholes in the MSM would pay attention more attention to John.

[Guaranteed]

22. It IS an interesting trio- there's some kind of a bond between them.

I think they all understand each other very well.

[grantcart]

23. they are trying to co-opt any discouraged supporters
