Ok, since my man Edwards is dead in the water (srry JE) I'm officially coming out for Clinton

[ShaneGR]

Here's why:



I'm putting all issues aside at this point, I hate what the Republicans have done so bad, that I want to put Bill Clinton back in the White House. Hillary isn't perfect, but she's far better than those conceited arseholes over in the R Party. I remember what the right did to Bill Clinton, and the ultimate in revenge would be to not only elect Hillary the first female President, the real REVENGE would be to put Bill Clinton back in that big white house.




EDIT!!!!!! Since everyone is so testy around here. I will gladly vote for Obama over any Repug too.

[Trajan]

1. And you are ?

Oh yeah .... You are ShaneGR ....

Got it ...

[ShaneGR]

5. That would be me!

You're Trajan, hi Trajan!

[chimpymustgo]

29. Damn-don't remember seeing you in a SINGLE Edwards thread. Things that make you go hmmm....

Real Edwards supporters are feeling the SURGE. We're going all the way.

[surfermaw]

38. You got that right, all the way to the White Houes...Surge going on in South Carolina

350 thousand are expected to vote in South Carolina, a 100 thousand more than did 3 years ago. so hand in John, we are going to suprise the nation.And show the nation the national media is a bunch of crap.

[ShaneGR]

54. I wish, really I do, but, uh, no

Srry, not gonna happen, sadly.

[jody]

2. IMO the majority of Edward's supporters will shift to Hillary. n/t

[LiberalHeart]

15. I won't. I can't. And I can't shift to Obama. So it's gotta be Edwards.

[Kucinich4America]

16. About the same time the majority of Hell's demons take up downhill skiing

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

18. Not a chance.

All the Edwards supporters I know will go to Obama (or stay uncommitted) if Edwards drops out -- which he isn't likely to do any time soon. Hillary is WAAAAY too far to the right of Edwards.

[BlackVelvet04]

31. I'll go to Hillary. n/t

[FreakinDJ]

28. When Pigs fly

[FrenchieCat]

34. Yes, and Hispanic people don't like Black people and

Gay people don't like Black people, and

Edwards people don't like Obama, and

Women only vote for women, and

What will Hillary think of next? :crazy:

[femmocrat]

41. Not this one. nt

[sniffa]

51. and welfare queens are steeling your guns.

or something like that.

DOOGA DOOGA DOOGA

[HughBeaumont]

57. Drug humor is in bad taste.

We don't shift from someone who's willing to take on corporations to someone who continually capitulates to them, right down to her support of free trade and job offshoring.

[PleadTheFirst]

59. Computer says ...

No.

[Melinda]

66. Not this Edwards supporter... I held my nose and voted Kerry in 04;

it's not going to happen again. And the same holds true with every other JE supporter I know in my area. HRC will not get any votes from the small lot of us.

[FrenchieCat]

3. Good luck with that!

[mtnsnake]

4. Good choice.

Seriously.

[ClericJohnPreston]

6. Edwards dead in the water

Wha, wha, WHAT?????!!!

What are you looking at. Some supporter Shane. I am in all the Edwards threads. Can't remember seeing you anywhere.

Anyway, whatever....

[ShaneGR]

14. I gave to Edwards in 04 and this year

Enough to be recorded. Hey, we lost, time to move on. Life is all about to change. Edwards will be fine and I'll support him with his poverty center work and anything else he does in the future.

[mtnsnake]

17. "Wha, wha, WHAT?????!!!"

That's the best rendition of "what?" I've ever heard :thumbsup:

Hows it goin, CJP :hi:

[ClericJohnPreston]

27. Hey mtnsnake!

:hi:

Still fighting the good fight. We are up against a ruthless enemy, IGNORANCE. Willing, complicit IGNORANCE! It's alternate name is ObamaNation :)

[goldcanyonaz]

7. So happy to have you on board!

[MannyGoldstein]

8. Revenge Is A Great Reason To Vote For Someone!

Bringing back the originator of NAFTA, permanent almost-free trade status for China, and outsourced torture won't really help us very much. But it'll be fun.

[Proud2BAmurkin]

13. Actually it is. Stomp those impeaching election stealing motherfuckers into the ground finally.

good for the OP

[Joe the Revelator]

9. Are you serious? You're voting for Hillary because you miss Bill

Pathetic.

[mtnsnake]

22. lol

I like how you say that, Wolsh :evilgrin:

[Proud2BAmurkin]

10. The worst thing we could do is reward their actions ("If we nominate her they will fight with us")

Congrats

[Barack_America]

11. Just so you know, Clinton's running under his wife's name.

So you'll actually have to vote for some chick named "Hillary".

Something to do with term-limits bullshit.

[Lucinda]

12. Wellll.......JE isn't dead yet. Not by a long shot. And Hillary isn't Bill.

But I'll be happy if you do vote for Hillary. :)

[ClassWarrior]

19. If you think JE's done, you were never really a supporter...

That's the funny thing about JE and his supporters. We...

Never Give Up.

[ShaneGR]

24. I've been a member here a long time, if theres a way to search through records for "edwards" and my

posts, you'd find them to be 100+ over the last 4-5 years, joined in 02 I think.

[balantz]

20. Well I don't know where the hell you been, I haven't seen your name out here

in the threads with us Edwards supporters.

[fenriswolf]

21. i dont know about you but edwards IS picking up

more votes everyday. He is "surging" towards victory. As for myself if I have to choose between my two corporate candidate. Well as they old adage goes I'll vote for the evil i dont know rather then the evil i do know.

[mondo joe]

23. I'd be for Edwards in the reverse situation.

:-)

[robbedvoter]

25. I can see that. Similar thoughts run back and forth in my mind.

ANNOY THE MEDIA. VOTE CLINTON!

It is poetic justice, come to think of it.
I miss Bill too.
Coming in favor of voting rights for the 2 states stupidly punished by the DNC - big in my book too. Thanks for sharing. I need to make my mind myself one of these days.

[OzarkDem]

26. I'm still with Edwards, but

if he doesn't make it, I agree with you. I would like to see Big Dog back in the WH; whether Hillary would listen to him is another question.

Edwards is doing very well, though and still has a good shot at winning the primary. Once he gets the nomination, he will do well in the GE.

[mnhtnbb]

30. Edwards is NOT dead in the water. Not yet.

[Seabiscuit]

32. Don't count out Edwards so soon. nt

[Little Star]

33. The BEST REVENGE EVER would be to put

Bill Clinton back in that big white house. That is not why I'm voting for Hillary, but it sure would be sweet. K&R for you!

[avaistheone1]

35. I hate quitters.

Live strong, baby! Get back on the Edwards bus.

[Raine]

36. Edwards isn't "dead in the water"

:wtf: at least wait till after the SC primary. :-(

[HCE SuiGeneris]

37. Edwards is not dead. Not much giddy-up in your belief in your candidate.

[glowing]

39. Then you weren't a real JE supporter.. more are moving to his camp than

from it... or at least you've kept your mind open... I can't go to Clinton... not unless it GE.. it wouldn't be what this country needs.

[aquart]

40. Could you wait till AFTER SC?

Ain't nobody knows what's happening there.

[robinlynne]

42. The news clip tonight on PBR was: Edwards surges!

[melody]

43. Funny, I don't recall seeing your name ever posting as an Edwards supporter

And suddenly you're backing Clinton?

Nice try.

[burythehatchet]

46. well the two of them are so close on the issues

:rofl:

[cascadiance]

44. Even with only 20+% of the vote sticking with Edwards STILL makes sense IF you're progressive!

By sticking with him until the convention, you can force one of the top two (if that's the way it winds up) to be more progressive to get his support, or if a split convention happens, perhaps even get Al Gore recruited to run instead! Don't give up yet!

[avaistheone1]

68. I agree. The smart money is still on Edwards.

[MoonRiver]

45. Welcome! I came on board a couple of weeks ago.

I feel stronger each day that I made the right decision. Hillary Clinton will be an incredible president. I have no doubt she can take on the * mess and create something beautiful in its wake.

[still_one]

47. The welfare reform act, the telcom act, deregulation of banking, energy, That's slick willy /nt

[InvisibleTouch]

48. If it comes to that...

...and I honestly think it might, then that will be my next move as well. For much the same reasons as yours. :) But, let's see what happens tomorrow before we announce a burial at sea.

[alittlelark]

49. uhhhh, yeah....

I also <quote> 'hate what the Republicans have done so bad'.


But your logic is kinda creepy.

[Thrill]

50. Too bad...There is not a chance in hell Hillary will be President

[Politicub]

52. Yay!

:) I'm so happy to read your post. John is a fantastic person, and I wish he had caught fire.

[stravu9]

53. One Word: NAFTA, or KYOTO, or Three words Deregulated cable industry.

no flippin' way for this child.

[ShortnFiery]

55. That's a shame. Obama is not "the old war horse" that HRC will proudly be when coronated.

:thumbsdown:

[wisteria]

56. Just remember, you can't go back and as time passes it is easier to remember the good and not the

bad. And, there were a lot of bad times with the Clinton's. Scandal after scandal. Questionable donors, outrageous pardons. President Clinton's lies. Times have changed.Perhaps we need to move forward and not take a trip back in time.

[Cameron27]

58. I don't know what I'd do

if I was in your position, but I'm so happy you decided on Clinton. :-)

[Monty__]

60. I'm not giving up on Edwards..

and in fact Bill is why I won't go for Hillary if Edwards does throw in the towel. I loved Bill in the 90's, defended him all the time but I am sick of his actions now.

[OwnedByFerrets]

61. Damn, I wasnt gonna sleep at all tonite worrying about that too....

:rofl:

[Hoof Hearted]

62. I wish all of us could have our first choice, but we can't. Any of our Dems will be a stunning

improvement over what we've endured for 7 years now.

I do think Hillary will be our nominee and if she is I KNOW she can win. Heads will explode. Rush Limbaugh's cyst will rupture and he'll have to go back on the hillbilly heroin again. It will be FUN.

[lisainmilo]

63. You never were a JRE man!

Possibly you were thinking about voting for him, but your heart has not been there, it's tied to BC.
Edwards is just getting started.

[jkurri]

64. If you give up....

then you are part of the problem. If you believe in Edwards even if you are the only one. I would say that for anyone who really believes in their choice, they should stick with it. What I have seen, the majority of people don't even know why they like someone, apparently they are more interested in being some part of history. Which is sad because this may be the closest we ever come to getting someone in power that cares about the middle class and poor. In the end you are only selling yourself out... not Edwards.

[sueh]

65. Your primary is in early March...

why not see what happens on Super Tuesday? You might still want to vote for Edwards after all. Just sayin. :shrug:

[deacon]

67. Uggg. I will never get to that point. n/t
