My vote for Obama
My vote for Obama (if I decide to vote)will not be a vote for him but rather a vote against the arrogant John McCain. When Edwards stopped so did my monetary support. I cannot understand how the American working people rejected John Edwards who was the only candidate looking after their interests.

3. That Really Was Amazing, Wasn't It?
Edwards had the lead on early returns at Iowa and eventually finished a close second. Yet if you'd watched the major networks and cable, you'd never have even known he was in the race.

Shit, Ron Paul got treated better.

2. Actually...

That's exactly what Obama did in IL, not just as a community organizer, but in our state senate. I just think Obama has broader plans, or at least discusses things in those terms. Where Edwards was very focused on that particular group.
