2. It seems as though he has thrown his support to Obama
I don't see how this helps him..

5. How..it seems only to be making Obama stronger
does he really think he will be able to take him down after that?

19. No, it's tactical. He wants Hillary out so that he can take on your guy alone.
He's a trial lawyer. Don't mistake what's behind that Colgate smile and Breck hair.

Those men and women are tough as nails and think like Patton.

If your guy is as smart as you think he is, he won't underestimate Edwards like you do.

6. It was a good night wasn't it?
Tonight Edwards wooed me. But I still would stand behind any of them.




Other than Richardson. :hide:

7. Yes, in fairness, they all did well
Except maybe Richardson, who stumbled, caused annoying noise, and over-promoted himself. Richardson's best moment was the last question, when he honestly admitted an embarrassing mistake. I admired that.

Edwards won by a mile, but Obama and Clinton both did well.

9. the last question was great! I found it quite telling that Richardson and Edwards could honestly
answer that question... and no one else.

12. Yeah... I expect Clinto and Obama to avoid the question
And sure enough, they did.

I'm not sure either of them realize how many voters are put off when they do that.

13. Didn't that kind of remind you of someone else

14. Well said!!! The thing that I love about the process...
is that whoever gets nominated and then elected has an opportunity to take away all the important messages that are being sent and DO SOMETHING.

I think all the candidates are getting the CHANGE message firmly lodged in their noggins...and besides, when we take the WH in November, is that not CHANGE?

Peace

15. If it isn't Edwards I will go into a deep funk! Having said that, I will vote for whomever our
nominee is. Don't know how proud I will be. :shrug: Since I clearly will believe if it isn't Edwards, the corporate media picked him/her. Go ahead and call me a sore loser. I don't care.

17. No way! Not a sore loser, just one of the funk club...
of which, I will be a member. But I also know that because the fight is personal for John, he will not quit, EVER.

Peace
