It sucks that in a union town, John Edwards message is not heeded
I would have thought the good folks of Nevada would have accepted John Edwards' message of true change and made this race a three way knuckle buster. Alas, it appears the populace is not ready to listen. Sorry folks, his prospects of even becoming a king maker grow dim. He deserves a position in the Administration of whomever becomes our President. He is a good man with a vision.

9. WTF? You are projecting your thoughts on to others now?
Cause THOSE words have NEVER come out of MY mouth or off of MY fingers.

3. Attorney General sounds about right.
Let him go after our malefactors of great wealth.

8. I'd prefer him as President too, but if not, I think AG sounds like a
kick-ass position for him.

11. I don't think it is. But to each his own.
It's a "convenient" position that some like to say would be good for Edwards because deep down inside they know he is getting a raw deal and would like to see him get "something".

13. America gets what America deserves my friend
Perhaps another 8 years of neo-con / neo-liberal fascist rule will help the sheeple see the light.

14. I think it's funny how **some** supporters of the other
candidates are practically foaming at the mouth -- demanding that Edwards immediately endorse either Hillary or Obama after today's results. Hell, they were calling for him to drop out after New Hampshire. I suspect these are many of the same people who wanted Kucinich blocked from the Las Vegas debate.

17. Eventually, when reality sinks in, low poling numbers will take their toll
Something has to give, and unfortunately Dennis and john Edwards are producing low numbers. The publi iasn't responding. Sorry, the balloon is out of helium.

20. Yes, I realize the numbers are low, and I realize the
balloon is losing helium, but what has to give?
