So...John Edwards has been out and about...

[WA98296]

on the shows lately..

I miss him, and Elizabeth! It's been great to see him. He was SO popular in our polls here. He has such a great populist message, and wants see a big change in the direction of our country. In many ways I wish he had stayed in the race longer. The media would not cover him. Corporations were afraid I think, lord knows they don't want people prospering!

We benefit from candidates like that -- FOR the PEOPLE! We've been suffering since Reagan, over 25 years, with a corporate-catering government.

I can't help but wonder what the REAL reason he's out there this week. So what YOU think he's up to?

1. I agree

I hope to see much more of him in the next administration.

2. Another Edwards supporter here.

The lack of coverage of his campaign by msm told me "they" would not allow his election. I would love to see him as attorney general. I would love to see him clean up the justice dept.

3. It might be just as well that Edwards dropped out of the race.

I'm not kidding or exaggerating when I say this,,,,
I firmly believe Mr. Edwards would not have lived to become President.

Too many powerful individuals would have lost power and coin if Edwards had become our leader.

4. Possibly raising his profile in anticipation of the VP offer?

I'm no great political 'strategerist,' but it seems to me that he could benefit Barack Obama in the south.

5. Edwards has already ruled out being anyone's VP

9. Really? I can't keep up with everything

In that case, perhaps this round of appearances is preparation for making an endorsement.

6. no idea, but

my mind spins crazy fantasies


I soooo want one of my three choices, instead of these two. Every time I hear anything about Gore, Biden, or Edwards my heart skips a beat.

JE is really a quality guy, with a lot to offer. He got pounded by some of the asshats on this forum, as did Biden. Chiming in witht he same worn-out meme every time they were mentioned.

Well, they got their wish. Now let's see if this guy can actually get elected.

It's a good thing the republican party is in the tank, bush is a disaster, and mccain is a suckup to him. We need ALL of that to have a chance of winning.

I got a RW email this morning that really made me pessimistic. It was crap, but it was crap that they will do a lot of, and it is easier to fling than the swiftboat message was.

Come on, John. Say you were just kidding. Say it was all a dream.

7. I think he could be a great Health and Human Services director

He could re-tool the entire department.

8. He's on face the nation tomorrow

10. I can't begin to guess about why he is about, but it is good to

hear from him again.

11. I really miss him

and his message. He was also very popular here.:cry:
