Excerpt of John Edward's speech last weekend before the NC Young Democrats Convention

I know I speak for many here in regretting that it won't be John.

12. I only saw Biden as the 3rd candidate in my district
if memory serves correctly. But even so, he had dropped out of the race, right?

2. I hope I'm not reading this correctly;
When someone compares two people, they usually say, "While I like A for so and so reasons, I like B better because..."

John, say it aint so!!!!!!!!!!

3. How are you reading it???
I don't think he was "comparing" Obama and Clinton so much as lavishing gracious praise on both. And I do take at face value his statement that democrats would be "blessed" to have either facing McCain in November. As for his preference, personally I think he does have one, but he's keeping his choice close to the vest. BUT I did find it very interesting that Elizabeth Edwards (according to Halperin's "The Page") said on "Morning Joe" today that she and John may not endorse the same candidate.

6. Draft Gore???
How about DRAFT EDWARDS!!! :woohoo: He's the classiest of the three contenders. It was only his anti-corporate speak that doomed him. The Corporate Media saw to that! :grr:

13. Edwards... the great fighter... NOT!
"I will fight for you!" over and over and over... Until he dropped out before super tuesday.

And all this time has gone by with no endorsement.

As far as I am concerned, he is no better than any other phony politician.... Sorry, that's just how I see it.

14. Thank you for your Dem support
we love to eat our own. Look at the polls at the Daily Kos and one will see that 59 % are less optimistic about the WH election in November. Wonder why?

Quit your bitching about endorsements, and remember Al Gore also chooses not to make them. John and Elizabeth are doing the heavy lifting the other candidates ARE NOT doing.
