12. I don't feel let down by John Edwards "personally" at all.
Someone somewhere convinced him or pressured him into believing that his continued presence in the race was an impediment in this "historic" election. Given that, I think it shows far more integrity for him to remain silent and NOT endorse. Obama and Hillary have plenty of endorsers, and Edwards voters are smart enough to make their own choice if they want to actively support someone or if they want to only commit to voting for our eventual nominee -- which is where I'm at.

As far as I know, he's the only one of the former candidates who is being pressured in this way to endorse after apparently being pressured to get out of the race. People should just leave him alone.
