1. WOW-- what earth-shattering news, bow-tie boy. we NEVER would have guessed it!!

[grantcart]

5. The point was not that it was news

but that it gives an opportunity to post comments to a larger audience

[itsrobert]

6. bow-tie boy?

What's with the name calling? Next you going to call him a cracker?

[mrreowwr_kittty]

9. Maybe he thinks the OP read Tucker nt

[niyad]

17. yes, I did

[niyad]

sorry--I thought it was that idiot tucker talking--didn't read it closely enough

[Hobarticus]

15. Name-calling is always class, personified

Can't call it unexpected.

[ShortnFiery]

2. That statement reveals .... the obvious. eom.

[Renew Deal]

3. One look at Edwards and you'll find out he's got more apologies than a confessional

He doesn't know what he stands for anymore. He picks the most liberal position he can find and then the easy to convince lap it up.

[Dawgs]

16. "He picks the most liberal position he can find and then the easy to convince lap it up."

I like Edwards, but that line is pretty close to true.

:rofl:

[bdamomma]

4. John said Obama will be tested, of course Obama will be tested.

[onehandle]

7. Ed Schultz has been saying that all afternoon.

This is just the beginning, MSM.

[Connie_Corleone]

8. No shit, sherlock.

[SaveElmer]

10. Edwards is the one that should worry about scrutiny...

So far he has been able to obscure his sorry record of flip flopping...if he gains any traction (which I don't think he will)...it will all hopefully see the light of day...

[maximusveritas]

12. That's what I was about to say

He says he's been vetted, but that was 4 years ago, before his many changes. He has yet to be challenged on any of that.

[jackson_dem]

13. The media has reported on that many times

There was a piece hitting Edwards on this in a Boston newspaper just yesterday. Weird how a distant third place candidate has gotten more critical press than Obama...

[surfermaw]

24. When people nit pick about hair cut and size of one house, there is not much out there to uses again

[Missy M]

11. I would hope so....

doesn't every other candidate?

[book_worm]

14. Really?

[Dawgs]

18. And so would Edwards.

Geez, if this is the best they have on Obama, we should definitely pick him as our candidate.

[Tom Rinaldo]

19. Now that Edwards sees Obama as the front runner

Clinton isn't the only one saying that Obama will be tested. Politics is so predictable sometimes. Any Democratic will be tested, the only queston is when.

[Thrill]

20. The People will reject the attacks on Obama

He will handle anything they throw at him. He knows it won't be easy

[Tom Rinaldo]

22. That is my belief also

I actually think Obama is a strong candidate

[Marlie]

21. He just spoke the truth

Once Obama is considered the front runner, he will get more scrutiny than before. Actually, I hope
it's true - better now than later, before he becomes our candidate. True for
all of them, we need to know everything possible, good or bad in order to make our decision.
I support Edwards and hope they bring out his record also. The Republican Machine and the MSM
will go after any Democrat who is the nominee the the general election. At that point, there's no
turning back for any of us.

[youthere]

23. NOTHING gets by Edwards. LOL!

On the next episode of "Obviousman"...John Edwards suspects Clinton may get criticism.

Sorry..I like John but..DUH!

[FrenchieCat]

25. Next streamer will state......

Edwards finds out he has taken matching funds and therefore is unelectable, period.
