So Ex-Edwards Supporters

[SoFlaJet]

will you follow John's lead if he asks you to support the candidate HE chooses to support? What if it's Hillary? How about Obama? Will it matter to you or will you follow your heart? My wife and I switched OUR support from Edwards all along over to Obama in yesterday's fake Florida primary-I'm glad we did, as we saw Edwards' campaign wasn't going anywhere...

[ScreamingMeemie]

1. I supported John Edwards because my beloved husband worked

so hard for him. After that, honestly, I don't give a damn anymore.

[Fresh_Start]

2. No, it was always my vote. It wasn't JE's vote

he can't tell me what to do with it anymore than the DNC or DUers can

[JuniperLea]

5. Hear hear!!! eom

[krabigirl]

16. yep, and since I already voted for him, what's the point? the other candidates don't need my $

[SammyWinstonJack]

30. Exactly!

[in_cog_ni_to]

3. Only if it's Hillary. That's who I'm voting for now. n/t

[JuniperLea]

8. Me too...

Not happy about it, but me too.

[in_cog_ni_to]

17. I'm not happy about it either, but she's better than Obama. n/t

[JuniperLea]

34. Agreed... eom

[ncliberal]

4. No.

[mth44sc]

6. What Ex-Edwards supporters?

Don't know of many myself.

We might one day cast a vote for someone else. But most of us will not stop being a supporter of John Edwards and the vision of this country he holds dear.

[Barack_America]

12. I had the same reaction.

I still consider myself a Gore and Kerry supporter as well...

[JuniperLea]

14. Hear hear!!!

I voted absentee... for Edwards. And I'm happy I did. I voted my conscience... this is not a football game, nor is it a horse race or a personality contest. Clinton and Obama have voted the same in the Senate 94% of the time. Edwards was the only stand out candidate... once Kucinich threw in the towel anyway.

[SammyWinstonJack]

32. ...

:thumbsup:

[redqueen]

7. I'm not an ex-Edwards supporter. (nt)

[MrCoffee]

9. I'm still an Edwards supporter

The other two have plenty of supporters.

[Malikshah]

10. What's with the "ex" part.

I'm still his supporter.

Now where I go in the GE is another story/

[Clarkansas]

11. I wouldn't vote for Hillary if every single Dem polician endorsed her

I am supporting Obama, and I hope Edwards will too. If he doesn't, that is his right.

[enlightenment]

13. I don't go with anyone else's suggestion.

Nor do I follow my heart - if I did that, my vote would be very different.

I vote with my head. My head supports Edwards, but I may not agree with his endorsement, whatever it happens to be.

I'll vote for the Democratic candidate for President - I'm sure the media will let us know who that is once they decide.

[redqueen]

15. Psst...

:hi:

[MADem]

18. I was going to flip a coin if he stayed in the race, now I'm not going to have to flip a coin.

I had it down to two, and now I've got a candidate.

[SoFlaJet]

22. I'll make a note of that

attention SFJ; do not EVER refer to Mother Earth as an EX-Edwards supporter-the absolute GALL of me...sheesh get a fucking grip will ya?

[MADem]

23. Errrr....what are you squawking at ME about???? I think you've posted your

angry "fucking" note in the WRONG "fucking" place. ....

:shrug: :eyes: :shrug:

[SoFlaJet]

27. yea sorry Madem

I had to edit it after seeing that a while ago

[MADem]

28. Never worry....it's an easy mistake to make, but I wanted you to know

you were aiming at the wrong target!

:hi:

[mother earth]

19. Don't EVER, I mean EVER call me an ex-Edwards supporter!

You have some gall.

It may be the first time in my life I do not vote. Our election process has no integrity and campaign reform is long, long past due.

[readmoreoften]

36. Agreed.

It's time that the party stop wooing soccer moms in hummers with W'04 stickers and start treating us with some respect.

[SoFlaJet]

20. Oh OK....

I understand you're all still Edwards supporters-so was I, the question is Who will you NOW be a supporter of? In other words if you haven't cast a vote yet, who will you be voting for in your states' primary...???

[MrCoffee]

21. I'll caucus for Edwards/Uncommitted in WA on 2/9

I certainly won't caucus for Obama or Clinton.

[OHdem10]

24. I supported Edwards and will now support Hilary.

I shall be so proud if John maintains his dignity and endorses
no one. He asked each of them to take up his mantle of fighting
for the poor and working class. It is up to each of them to show
how they will do this.

I do not expect John to tell me whom to support.

[Double T]

25. obama isn't going ANYWHERE either.

[Blue_In_AK]

26. I don't give a care, actually.

Obama does NOTHING for me, nor does Hillary. I'm out of it for the duration. I'll vote in November for the Democrat, because I care about the Supreme Court appointments, but I'm not hopeful.

[Condem]

29. In a word...

no. I would very much prefer Edwards endorse one cadidate over the other. But, my decision has already been made.

[BlackVelvet04]

31. I will follow my heart. n/t

[nonconformist]

33. I'm STILL an Edwards supporter, but I will only follow his lead if he endorses Hillary.

Obama has lost my vote.

[readmoreoften]

35. We're glad too. You have that certain nasty je ne sais quoi of a rabid Obamacan.

I'm not following anyone's lead. And, frankly, I might vote Hillary just to get Obama out of the ring because he's a pandering bag of hot air.

[mentalsolstice]

37. Why are they "ex" supporters.

Even though he's no longer running, we can still support him. He wasn't my first choice, however, I support him. I hope he continues to speak out. JE for SCOTUS?
