Is it me, or are Clinton and Obama nervous about Edwards?

[helderheid]

They seemed really comfy in the beginning but seem to be getting more and more defensive. Don't get me wrong, I'll vote for any of them should they win the nomination. Just an observation.

[Oceansaway]

1. .

they dont like his truthiness....hehe

[helderheid]

3. LOL! Or changeieness!

[sunonmars]

2. I get the feeling they want him out of the way now

They want it down to 2

[FlyingSquirrel]

30. HRC shouldn't want him out of the way.

He's the only thing standing between BO and the nomination.

[cali]

31. Obama certainly doesn't. It would spell disaster for him

in SC if JE drops out. Most of the white support that JE has would go to Hillary. Logic works better than "feelings".

4. It's just you.

[helderheid]

6. Thanks! :)

[Gidney N Cloyd]

5. They're both trying to keep Edwards from getting away with any good points.

So, yeah, they seem worried.

[AndyA]

7. Edwards is in "tell the truth mode."

And Clinton and Obama can't handle it.

He's flat out telling it like it is, even if by doing so he isn't shining the best light on himself.

Yes, he's made mistakes. And he's going to fix them when he gets in the White House.

How refreshing: hearing the truth.

8. It's you. Hillary isn't nervous about anything. she is at the top of her game.

IMHO

[helderheid]

9. Thanks!

:hi:

[Horse with no Name]

10. They are allowing them to rebut everything he says

whether or not he invokes them.

[helderheid]

11. I noticed that!

[madokie]

14. and in the end John is the one who looks good

[The River]

17. Responding Gives Him More Air Time

in a good way because his follow ups are great.

[SaveAmerica]

27. I'm so glad I came here tonight, I said that to my husband. It seemed to me

they would let Hillary and Obama rebut more often, too. Maybe it was because he was bringing up points that had to be rebutted and they didn't? I'm so glad he's staying in, even if it's to make sure nothing gets closed over or buried.

[Triana]

13. Money Candidates tweedle-dee and tweedle-dum finally realized that...

...this is A THREE-WAY RACE and that they may NOT be able to just coast along on the Media's blackout of Edwards.

[ursi]

15. the media has ignored Edwards and he is like seabiscuit ...he keeps running

that should make them both nervous

[Emit]

16. He drives the debate

IMO.

[Hoof Hearted]

22. I do think he brings a very important voice to the debate, and I rather enjoy that he's held

both of the other candidates feet to the fire. It's good for them, and so, good for all of us.

[bdamomma]

18. hey while everyone is focused on Clinton and Obama watch out for

Edwards he can come from behind.

[antigop]

19. Well, of course they are.... n/t

[nonconformist]

20. As they damn well should be.

Edwards just lays it out there, and that's scary for corporate politicians to deal with.

[OPERATIONMINDCRIME]

21. I Have To Disagree With You There.

Personally, I my view of the debates tonight was that Hillary was by far the strongest and the one putting herself out there as the one to beat, and I found Edwards to be actually be ineffective in his presence. I like John a lot, but I think he was totally outshined tonight.

[helderheid]

23. hmmmm... Gotta disagree with you, pal! ;)

I thought Hillary seemed annoyed she wasn't the only one there! :P

[BlackVelvet04]

24. Anybody notice that aren't showing John Edwards

signing any autographs?

[Greylyn58]

25. I have mentioned that in several threads now

Where is he? Is he still on the stage? Or are they just not showing him.

[BlackVelvet04]

26. I don't know....

I didn't see him anywhere in the background shots.

[AgadorSparticus]

28. We sure noticed it! :( nt

[AgadorSparticus]

29. I noticed that they would sort of jump on John's bandwagon at times.

The question would be asked and they gave their answers. But once they heard John's they had to come back with a "me too"-like reply.

[creeksneakers2]

32. I sensed the same thing and I'm not an Edwards supporter

They might have both been angry at Edwards for throwing gasoline on the racial flare up. I know I am. They'd probably both like him to be out.
