So, where's my fund-raiser email from John & Elizabeth Edwards??

[MethuenProgressive]

I used his site to send Elizabeth Edwards a note.
I didn't get an email back asking for money.
Is this a hoax? An exaggeration?

Edwards Provides Lesson in E-Campaigning 101
When you visit the John Edwards for President Web site, you're invited to send a sympathy note to the Edwardses. And tens of thousands of well wishers have done so since that heart-wrenching news conference two weeks ago at which Elizabeth Edwards courageously discussed her incurable cancer.

What those well wishers get in return -- e-mail messages soliciting contributions to Edwards's campaign.

1. I too sent her an email and got a very nice note back

from her (or her handlers) .... don't matter to me. It was a very kind response and one that I think did come from her as it referenced something very specific that I mentioned that no-one unless they had personally gone thru chemo would have been aware of.

Class act....both of them.

4. I guess this debunks the smear that the OP posted.

Thanks for posting about your experience.

6. "Debunks OP's Smear"? WTF are you smoking?

I was asking if the NEWS STORY was a smear because I did not get the kind of email they were claiming everyone was getting!
I'm always amazed that some DUers can type, but evidently can't read...

8. You posted it, did you not?

I didn't say it was YOUR smear of Edwards.

Listen carefully. It was a smear. You posted it. It doesn't make it YOUR smear of Edwards. It makes it a smear that YOU posted.

Thus: "the smear that the OP posted"

Jeez, talking about a reading comprehension problem.

2. All you had to do was to be here in 2004

during the election to know what a beautiful person Elizabeth Edwards is.

When I went to a fund raiser recently, Andy Hurst, our candidate for Congress who didn't get in said, "one the best things I can say about Edwards is that he and Elizabeth have been married over 23 years". Their moral compass goes deep.

5. I also received a message from Elizabeth,

or someone helping her with correspondence

3. So, Hoax, Exaggeration, or Truth?

7. I sent one too and I didn't get an email requesting money either.
