It was sad watching Edwards speak last night; he sounded extremely Presidential
...and yet - it won't be. :(

It should have been Obama endorsing Edwards.

1. It was bittersweet for me.
I was wishing that is was reversed with Obama endorsing Edwards but it was good to see John with a national platform again. I actually enjoyed watching the talking heads last night for a change. Most seemed to think that it was an important endorsement and weren't as dismissive of him as they were when he was still running.

There is talk that he will be actively campaigning for Obama so, hopefully, we'll be seeing lot more of him between now and the convention.

6. I think that would be great
Think of all the TRAITORS who need to be prosecuted. Think about all the war profiteers he could go after; all the bribe givers and takers who benefitted from no-bid contracts at OUR expense.

7. Even if he goes along with most of their PNAC plan
He can't be trusted in the future since he is a Progressive. No Progressive Democrat shall be given power under Dean. Dean and his state by state attempt to silence us.

Fire him delegates.

2. Yes indeed

it should have been Obama endorsing Edwards. Edwards sounded so much more presidential than the candidate he endorsed.

3. It was sad watching him sell himself. He could have been a statesman.
He did indeed sound more "presidential" but then he always did.Not that it matters anymore. Very sad.

9. My sentiments exactly
He did stand on the threshold of being right alongside Gore as a party elder--a statesman. What could have been.:(

4. Damn! I love him!
It should have been Hillary and Edwards and Edwards would have won the Dem Nomination! Obama lied when he said he wouldn't run in '08! That was his intention all along! He is a liar and an empty suit!

8. Ya I agree.

The Chicago Tribune and Emanuel had him hand picked a long time ago. He's no Progressive but a globalist and is theocratic.

Any chance of Emanuel being kicked out on his butt in this election by another Democrat?
