Edwards To Endorse Obama

Well, there goes any chance I’d ever consider voting for Edwards again.

I think the superdelegates turned over voters’s will. The blue-collar voters didn’t want Obama, why Edwards wants to bring them to Obama???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

This is truly a disappointment. Edwards was very respectable, but now he’s lost any chance of running for president.
Hillary ’08

im sorry people of hillary land, im sure everyone will wait till june 3rd before pulling the plug on your little fantasy.
Especially after Oregon….poor hillary, oregon is going to be a tough pill to swallow

Well, what do you expect? Edwards is the next Vice President,!! Blue collar people…welcome on board!!

a little too late, but still made for the right person

Golfgirl – get a grip… The superdelegates are supporting the will of the people, of the majority, rather than overturning the demographic that you seem to deem most important.

It’s ABOUT time

What a surprise….one elitist endorses another.

Edward cannot give the blue collar working class to Obama. Edward is another politician that want to turn down the will of people. Nobody cannot help Obama to bring back the working class except Hillary.

This is Breaking News? For this I get an email alert?

Thank you John Edwards! I am sick and tired of the under-educated and the intolerant among us holding this nation hostage. I’m sick of them being the ones who set the tone and the agenda for this country.
How well has prejudice, ignorance and intolerance served us these last 8 years?
I believe all of us are important to the national debate; all of us belong at the table.
No one group or demographic should be more important or louder than the next.

Great news for Obama. This is a good step to unifying the party for November.

I was wondering if he was going to pick a side or not. I actually thought he might stay out of it till the Convention…

This whole political process is sickening. I thought Edwards would remain neutral.
It has been all about supporting and endorsing who will get you the furthest politically. They are ALL out for themselves.
This is NOT a different type of politics…it is business as usual. Give me something to believe in…get rid of them all.

i can’t believe Edwards… Yesterday He said He wasn’t going to endorse anyone until the votes are over!!! Today He goes and gives it to Obama… you talk about a real loser!!! I’m so glad I didn’t vote for Him in the first Place… I sure would have voted for Him if He won this part of the election… Now i would never vote for him if He ever ran!!!

Looks like Johnny wanted to see who would for sure win before jumping on board. He sold out to his “working class” voters for an “elite” politician. Watch, Edwards will be his VP.

Surprised Obama will accept it since Edwards also voted for the war. It is simply amazing what people will do rather than let this run its course. There was only a few weeks left. Guess Obama’s ego couldn’t take another bruising like West Virginia.

An Obama/Edwards ticket?
Unbeatable.

Mr. Edwards – you’ve always had my utmost respct – UNTIL TODAY! Why is everyone trying to stop the DEMOCRATIC process??? Let the people vote and let those votes count.

Lots of pure disdain for Obama is NOT because he is black, it is because he is a democratic elitist that looks down on parts of America.
We don’t need a person like Obama to divide the nation.
We don’t need him & his racist clan like Jeremiah Wright & the Black Panthers roaming the White House.
We are not bitter Americans clinging to guns & religion.
WE JUST DON’T LIKE YOU BARACK OBAMA.
Why vote for a divider like Barack Obama, when there is a great patriotic war hero that has always loved his country on the ballot.
I will never vote for Obama if he is the last democrat on this planet.
My whole family will vote for John McCain.

To all Democrats unhappy with Obama, VOTE MCCAIN.

Great News! Edwards is brilliant and can deliver the South, 2 great young men versus McBush the 3rd,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Those two fellows really look nice standing together…….
It’s nice to see this country rally behind unity and diversity……
Such a pleasant thing…..

Well, now its all over. Let’s move on.

Better late than never! Time for the Democrats and Independent to unify behind one candidate!
I’m an independent who will be voting Democratic for two reasons:
1) Bush, the man with the reverse-Midas touch (everything he touched turned to dust–the economy, the war, the environment, etc.).
2) Obama, the man who made politics seem interesting again. The enthusiasm for change around where I live is phenomenal.
God bless America! God bless Obama!

For Michigander,
It’s amazing how the state of Michigan breaks the rules and it’s Obama’s fault.
People have the most inane reasons for disliking Obama. It tells a lot about one’s character.

No one here seems to be focused on his delegates…doesn’t he have something like 25 still assigned to him? He also has the official endorsement of the Coalminers and Steelworkers Unions,both of whom said they were waiting for his endorsement before supporting another candidate…this IS much bigger news than just changing the news about WVA

Democrats, let’s unite now and go crush, CRUSH the Republicans for a generation! We need to pull this country from the brink of disaster.

John edwards is a smart man. He knows Hillary has no chance of winning and face it who wants to be a team w/ a loser. We keep talking about how Hillary can get the white vote, what about the votes of the minorites in this country are they invisible. Thats why other countrys don’t like us because the white people in this country think they are elite. Hillary can’t win w/out the black vote and trust me she won’t get it!

John,
She can’t win w/o the black vote!!! She has no chance in 2012.

Come on Hillary supporters if she is not the nominee, please, please vote for McCain for President.
McCain for President!!
Hillary 2012!!

I’m not surprised if Al Gore endorses Obama, all those losers endorsed Obama, Kerry, Kennedy, Richardson, Edwards…
But I still hope Al Gore endorse Hillary, because Bill Clinton promoted him to VP.
No matter what happens, I’m for Hillary all the way.
I don’t think Obama will win in general election; even if he wins, I don’t think it wll be good for the country.
I’ve already seen several times, the winner made the country so bad!!
We need to change the election process:
1) whenever someone declares to run predidency, we need to fully vet him first. Imagine, if we vetted Obama from the beginning, he can not stand here today, he could not have momentum.
2) Whoever runs presidency campaign, he should be a influential person among the same level of persons as other candidates. Obama is just a below average US senator. How can he be an international leader so easily?? US president will be international leader, remember.

Edwards? AAAAAAnd he is???? Aaaaaand he’s accomplished???
When somebody in the Democratic Party that has previously gotten as far as Obama and Hillary in this Primary endorses anybody let us know…
This is as good as Gravel or Kucinich

well, now there are 2 men I would never vote for.
I bet Liz Edwards would rather see Hillary in office…

Len, blacks make up only 12% of the population, Latinos are more, we’ll make up the difference.
Latinos and Asians will not vote for Obummy!!

All you endorsers make me kind of sick – your endorsements are worth so little, particularly since in the case of super delegates, your vote does not even come into play until the convention. We know each and every one of the supers is going to actually vote then for whomever looks like they have the best chance for winning the general election, regardless of whether or whom they might have “endorsed” previously. For those who have endorsed Clinton in the past, and have flip flopped since then, shame on you – she is the same person now that she was then. You are only putting your mouth in the same direction as the wind blows, and if something happens between now and then (which already has in the WV “Clinton trounces Obama”) you will flop-flip back. You are a bunch of self-interested hacks and your endorsements mean nothing to me and really should mean nothing to anyone else – you should quit pandering and allow the people to elect a president, not your meaningless valueless weaseling endorsements. Turncoats!!! Fair weather friends is the nicest epithet you deserve.
Senators Edwards,Kennedy, etc. (I used to like the Kennedy’s but Teddy, you suck, you hypocrite!): don’t bother running for anything again – you have shown your colors and no one, especially me, will vote for any of you again – we now know beyond doubt that you never mean what you say and you don’t walk your talk. We’re onto your game and it doesn’t fly with this citizen, and probably a lot of others like me.

Edwards was my original favorite for the nomination. Then after he dropped out, my preference moved to Obama. I’m glad to see that he’s finally chosen a side.

Exactly what is the problem Hillary supporters have with Obama other than he clobbered her in a primary election??
I don’t understand?

And the blood of the soldiers and Iraqis is on your hands.

First WV is not a major elections. It’s simple rules are rules. Remember 2+2=4 not Michigan and Florida. If Edwards endorse Hillary. Her supporters would being say, see another “working class” which is a new term for White has endores CLinton. Wear is the fat lady? Get her on stage please.

I want the person who tells the truth. Hillary changes her story every state she is in, we can see it in her eyes. So, how many of her promisses would actually come to fruition if she wins? Look into her eyes, she says what people want to hear. Look at Obama’s eyes, hear his voice, tell me who will delivery on their promisses. His walk matches his tone. Make a choice not because you like what you are hearing but because who know you are supporting what is right and ethical. I am tired of lying canidates. How many times does Hillary lie in a day? a week? a month? Or John Mccain for that matter. Soo many holes in their stories. They couldn’t find holes in obama’s so they had to make up stuff about his past, which has been proven as 100% lies. Research, find the truth out and do what is right for you and for our country!

Obama, Edwards and Richardson! the Three Amigos!!
Hillary to make enchiladas at banquets

Re: comments saying this is overturning the will of the people, Obama is winning the popular vote. Do a little research before you spout off ignorance.

My sentiments exactly, timothy.
Most Hillary supporters will absolutely vote Mccain if Obama is the nominee.
It appears Edwards is yet another opportunist (akin to Richardson) who would rather jump on the potential cabinet post bandwagon, than hold firm to his principles.

Obama is a phony and his wife is NASTY!!

A true insult to all Americans. The endorsement comes in MI the state he helped disenfranchise by blocking the revote. Tell me again MR. EDWARDS that you’re for middle class Americans. You’re a true politican in every sense of the word.

Such sore losers, these Hillary fans! Both candidates sought the endorsement. Calling Obama an elitist means nothing – all of the candidates could be considered elitists, as they are all millionaires. Superdelegates historically never wait until the race has ended to endorse. Hillary and her whiny supporters are doing damage to her credibility and her potential for future endeavors. Maybe we really will be able to move beyond the Clintons once this is over. How will all the Hill fans react when she is out campaigning for Obama??

I supported John Edwards on Super Tuesday , but I will not vote for Obama..John Edwards should be ashamed of himself.

I have been waiting for the Democratic Party to see the good of the Nation over the good of the candidate. this is a step in the right direction for the United States of America! Long may she stand!

As if he is going to bring Obama the middle class vote. That’s a hoot. As is comment sense, “quiet competence.” Yes, when they count the totals of all 57 states Obama is sure to win. LMAO

Just another desparate measure by a desparate candidate.

John Edwards would make an EXCELLENT VP!
or… if nothing else, an EXCELLENT AG !

This is great, great news!

This is the icing on the cake. I’m registering as a Republican in the morning.

A very good development, indeed. Thank you, John!
It’s about time we close this charade down.
Would have preferred Kucinich.
But we go to the presidency with the candidates we have, not the ones we’d like to have.
After all, the media forced this election to the candidates they wanted, and denied the American people a real choice.
Barack at least may be honest.
Hillary sure isn’t. Let’s get her out.

Let’s see…
Bill and Hillary each have their own private jet. They have spent $11 million of their own money trying to claim what they believe is their God-given birthright. And Obama’s the elitist? OK.

if Obama chooses Edwards as Vice President… That is one more reason for Hillary people not to vote for obama… That would show the only reason Edwards went to obama to better Himself… I don’t think His state if they vote for Hillary will like it that Edwards especially if Edwards is made V>P>!!!

Hillary Clinton has been an extraodinary and formidable candidate throughout this whole campaign. It saddens me that even while she and Obama are urging unity amongst democrats, Hillary supporters slam anyone who likes and endorses Obama. They liked Richardson and now he is slime because he endorsed the candidate he LIKED THE MOST over the candidate he OWED the most. I heard nothing but praise from Hillary supporters over the past few months about John Edwards. Now, you want to slime him down because he decides to endorse OBama!! Why must you smear everyone who endorses Obama???
And here is the kicker. You guys all wanted Edwards and other super delegates to wait before endorsing. Well, he waited until the primary season is about over and is now endorsing. That is what Hillary wanted. Some time to prove herself. Obama won in his state by huge numbers. The superdelegates are worried that this long fight has turned very divisive — as evidenced by you Hillary supporters.
That’s right.You Hillary supporters are to blame. Maybe if you guys weren’t screaming so loud that you’d vote for McCain if Obama won, the Supers would be more inclined to wait it out. They want this process over so the healing can begin.
And as for White Working Class voters supporting Hillary, well, This country is NOT made up of only uneducated white working class people. Oh, and you want to talk about loyalty? White working class democrats have been traitors to their own cause. They have abandoned the party several times. Blacks, on the other hand have been LOYAL voters for almost 50 years. No wonder the SuperDelegates are less loyal to White Working class voters. They haven’t been as loyal to the party like blacks have.

Al Gore is not going to endorse anyone. No need. It has been widely written for years that Gore dislikes and disrespects the Clintons. He can stay neutral and liked as a major party elder, peace/environment guru and Nobel prize winner. Obama is now the Democratic nominee. My hats off to Clinton- valiant effort running your campaign your own way. The celebration and blowout in Oregon will be wonderful.

John Edwards endorses Obama. It would have been nice if he had done this a little earlier, but I’m glad it finally happened. As Edwards says, it’s for helping to unify the party at this late stage, rather than actually preferring one candidate over the other.

why some of hillary supporters so bitter? They should take few minutes and ponder why they hate obama so much? maybe then (at least) they know themselves a bit better.

I can’t understand the Clinton supporters. They love Edwards, and want him to endorse their candidate, and the minute he endorses Obama, he is the worst guy on earth. It’s no big surprise Edwards is endorsing Obama. I saw it coming since January, during their debate in New Hampshire.

Excellent- when will Edwards be out on the campaign trail! I’d love to see edwards on Obama’s administration team!

To ALL!!! the Hillary supporters google “Hillary Clinton, Screw’em” comment and see what your candidate thaout of you when she thought these same hardworking blue collared white americans had shorted here and then President Clinton in 92 after repub’s took over congress. Don’t kid yourselves these people care nothing about you just power.

Cry…cry in your beers you Hillary backers. President Obama is a very forgiving man. Keep up w/ your crying and you’ll be lucky to still call yourself a Democrat after he wins it all….no thanks to any of you or your whiney candidate. How dare she think she should carry to Union/Working man’s vote???? Really??? She sat on the board of Wal-Mart for more than two decades. The most anti-union company in America over the past 50yrs. She’s a $100 millionaire. What working man or woman can relate to that???? These are the very same simpletons who supported W. W’s time is almost done and Clinton’s time is already done. Get on-board the Obama Express. There’s enough room, but you’ll have to go the the back of the line.

Will this mean that Edwards’ will give Obama his pledged delegates? Correct me if I am wrong but if Edwards give his delegates then Obama clinches the minimum number of delegates needed, minus the Flordia and Michigan debacle.
Erich

So go form your own independant party…and when Hillary gets less popular vote than Nadar, maybe you’ll begin to realize how detached from reality you all are.

Edwards – Got Spine?
Nope, but got nice hair and a dazzlin smile…
Win or Lose – I’m with Hillary all the way!
If she’s not the nominee – I’ll write her in..

I never knew Hillary supporters are so idiotic!!! You people are embarrassing Hillary!

Clinton’s win in WVA was impressive – however maybe she should move to WVA and run for Governor and she can live in peace with her white, low income, uneducated, racist followers. Who would want to visit WVA after the entire state has been declared today the most racist state in America.

Billy Joe: Have you been living in a cave or something? Nearly everything that Clinton said in her speech was taken from Obama’s speeches.

I can`t believe John Edwards choose Obama, I know Mrs.Edwards wants to choose Hillary , It seems to me John loves Obama`s butts. Now John sucks, I think he does not want to see woman to be presdient, yeah , Hillary is smart than John and Barack. I know Obama asked John to choose him. Obama is whiner. John , Please get of USA-GO TO HELL

I like Edwards. He should of stayed out of it now he just looks like an jerk. I will never vote for him again!!

Another angry man.
Fits right in.

Hillary fans suck it up. Do you really want McCain in there? He’s going to be the guy who appoints at least ONE Justice to the Supreme Court (Stevens is what 88 years old?)…one vote is all the right wing needs to overturn Roe V. Wade…have some sense people, Barack Obama support 99.9% of what the Clintons support.
Wake up people!!!

“God Damn the U.S. for its vile conduct in the Philippine Isles” William James 1899 … this nation has more than its share of atrocities making this statement by Rev Wright seem tame in its condemnation. Those of you on this board who blindly defend US actions are showing yourselves to be either void of compassion or blind with the imagery of the pure of heart American dream that NEVER was. This nation of ours is no0 better than any other nation. This nation of ours has LESS of an excuse than any other nation, for we have a constitution that allows us to steer free of the very atrocities we still commit.

I’m a Michigander too and what the Clinton campaign tends to overlook is that in our polls, MI goes half and half for Obama/Clinton. This is by no means a landslide state even though this is the first day that Obama has campaigned here. I’m tickled pink about Edward’s endorsement. He’s a good man who has worked very hard for the poor. He and Obama share many key issues in common. Another point about Edwards is that he has quite a few delegates here and there who have stuck with him and who have stated that they will go where Edwards goes. We’ll have to see how many pledged delegates end up coming over with this Super Delegate. Expecting huge crowd in Grand Rapids, MI tonight at Van Andel Arena. We’ve been lining up for hours already. Come out and join us. You probably can’t get inside now, but the weather’s mild and Obama always talks to the folks outside too. What FUN! Yippee ty A!

Seriously: Real nice….as is typical with all Clinton supporters, when you know your going to lose a state (in this case Oregon)….you attack its people and pretend it doesn’t count….what a low life.

Hopefully John`s wife will file for divcore him!!! John will marry Barack Obama in Fall.

Senator Obama and Senator Edwards have always been leaders and visionaries. I am confident they will help to repair much of the damage of the Bush years.

Wow, if I’d known all you Hillary folks were still out there, I’d have bought stock in Kool Aid.
Here’s the weird thing… Hillary and her crew tell some tales about Obama, they sow some seeds, spread some doubt. But despite all that, one by one respectable people like Bill Richardson, John Edwards, Chris Dodd, and more than 250 superdelegates all come out for Obama.
More and more Hillary is isolated. Makes me wonder whether Hillary wasn’t making some stuff up to round up votes.
How long do y’all want to stay on that iceberg with her?

“Back door politics?” Jennifer….Hilliary invented that! Why are you so emotionally insecure that you actually “feel” that Hilliary cares for you?

Will the last person leaving the room please turn off the lights. Hillary’s party is over!

It happened as expected. What else can he do? He have no choice if he want to be a good Democrat.
I, however have my choice and I choose to walk away from the Democrat, because I no longer believe that the Democrat insiders represent my value/believe.
Time to look for Hillary2012. Hopefully, next time the people and the Democrat will be wiser.

Ding dong, the b …. is dead. lol

Obama isn’t demeaning to women…Hillary Clinton is.

Just a thought….
who will benefit from the death af a president???
THE VP….!!!!

What Obama has actually accomplished is historic! It is the story of all stories in this country since the Civil War. And the wonderful thing is the American people made it happen.
So cut the whiners loose. No one without ovaries will ever be good enough for them anyway. There were no real differences between Hillary and Barack on issues, so it’s not that. Hillary cast every attack stone first, and her supporters were infuriated when Barak actually answered back, and gave as good as he got. “The nerve…”, they said. And for Obama to have the temerity to turn around and beat the socks off of Hillary, with ten straight state victories, really snagged their nylons. After all, there was suppose to be this coronation thing, where the young, black middle class nobody from nowhere get crushed like a bug, and they could get back to ordering the food and beverage for the Hillary crowning party. Cut the whiners loose.

Those “Democrats” who would even think of voting for McCain cannot be called Democrats. What a disgrace!
Can you not see that he is totally dishonest, unreliable, and INSANE? Do you know what he calls his wife in public? Hint: 4-letter-word begins with “c”!
Disgraceful and INSANE!

It’s the good ol’ boy network at work once again. We’ve had centuries of men as president, but let a woman come along who’s the most qualified and ready person on the face of the planet to be our next President, and what do the boys do? Well…(Richardson, McGovern, Edwards, Kennedy, Kerry) do I have to tell you? It’s got something to do with the anatomy. The very thought of a strong, smarter-than-they-are woman as president just makes them all shrivel.

Does Obama get Edward’s delegates that he won when he was running? If so, that just gets him closer to the final delegate count.

Have you ever stopped to consider that Edwards has mulled this over in his mind for months. I believe that he wanted to make sure that he made the right decision. I for one am glad that he took his time to make the right choice for America!

Edwards has just lost any chance of ever running for the Presidency again.
It is moot, anyway. BHO cannot win in November.
The majority of working voters are not going to, in these uncertain times, vote into the Presidency someone they’d be alarmed to see walking behind them on a dark street.

Patricia , you maybe right about the Democrates, but they only account for 30%+ of the voters. The independent don’t have to be loyal to any party, and they account for over 40%. I am one of those 40% who will never hire someone for the CEO position whose still a trainee to be a executive in any case. Not unless you are talking about a tiny store.

Wow, Hillary endorsers are unbelievable…it is one thing to be sore losers, but isn’t this whole election supposed to be about our country’s future and not one woman’s maniacal political ambition? Obama has won, so deal with it. I am a republican for Obama, and I am looking forward to him bringing this country back together!

It is amazing that Clinton supporters have such a short memory. Does no one remember her flip-flop on NAFTA? Did we forget the claim that she helped broker a peace agreement in N. Ireland? Did we forget the negative campaigning strategy when she fell behind in the race? Is she forgiven for the fact that she was quoted as saying that MI & FL shouldn’t count? Is it not disturbing to anyone that her position was to oppose CAFTA, but her husband was paid to endorse it? Does anyone wonder how Paul V Clinton (campaign fraud trial) hasn’t been mentioned at all by the media? Does anyone honestly believe that the GOP won’t bring up all of the scandals from the Clinton presidency? How is it that she isn’t questioned about her past associations? The only thing she has been called to the carpet for is the “Bosnian sniper” incident. Yet HRC supporters claim “Media Bias”? You don’t think the Republicans aren’t salivating at the prospect of running against HRC? It seems to me that if she were more “electable”, she’d be winning and her badly managed campaign wouldn’t be in such a shambles. Additionally, can anyone name any major achievement since becoming a Senator? On what does she base her experience? You talk about Obama supporters following along like lemmings, but you should take a closer look at your candidate. Nonetheless, if Hillary is the nominee, I will support her. Flaws and all.

Obama, Clinton, Edwards… Why do the dems try to get the least qualified person possible nominated?
I’m not a Democrat but it blows my mind that you guys run over Biden, Dodd and Richardson to get to one term senators.
I don’t agree with them, but at least I’d be comfortable with their qualifications.

I think it is so funny how all the Clinton supporters are doing whatever they can to cut down Obama. Face it….your candidate lost!!!! Just get over it! Obama is going to be the next president, and rightfully so. So all you cry babies can go on and on about timing and how you will never vote for Edwards, but all that really shows is how immature you are and how you put your own selfishness over what is best for this nation. Obama 08…yeah baby!

And don’t forget all the anti-gay comments folk are throwing in too.
Please people. Stop with the hatred. Clinton is a great candidate. Obama is a great candidate. The great news is that we will get one or the other. The Republicans got stuck with McCain. :)

I am a resident of NC. We voted Edwards into office as a US Senator to work for the state of NC. He spent the first half of his term exploring the idea of running for President, and the second half of it actually running, first for the nomination and then as VP. You know what? He never actually did anything for NC. That is why he did not even help Kerry carry the state in the GE in 2004. He could not get elected again right now in NC as a US Senator, so why would anyone in this country listen to him as regards a Presidential candidate endorser? I voted for Hillary in our state primary last week. If Edwards had still been running, I would have still voted for Hillary. Obama is not my choice for President. Edwards wants the Attorney General’s position and he has waited to see who had it wrapped up before he endorsed. I am not voting for Obama, no matter who endorses him. I think he would be so bad for this country that I will vote for John McCain if Obama is declared the nominee. What these party leaders cannot seem to understand is, if a person really does not support a candidate, it does not matter who endorses them. It does not change who they are or what they stand for. Just because I am a Democrat does not mean I have to vote for the Democratic nominee. I never vote a straight party ticket. I vote per candidate. And as a Democrat, I will never vote for Obama.

John Edwards has stayed true to his base in endorsing Senator Obama, who has earned the support of the majority of the popular vote, the majority of pledged delegates, and the majority of superdelegates. Sen. Edwards is not only a great American, who would have made a fine President; he is also a realist, and he knows that Senator Obama has the leadership and vision that will unite our factious country, restore our economy, and bring a just and peaceful resolution to our entanglement in war on two fronts that is sapping our strength, our resources, and the lives of our best and brightest soldiers. He will restore credibility and respect for the USA at home and abroad. Thank you Senator Edwards for making a wise choice, and having the courage to take a stand for what is in the best interests of the American people. God Bless You!

It’s a great fit, Edwards champions the poor and Obama is trying to use the poor for his personal game. Thanks sweetie.

I see that Operation Chaos is still going strong.
These people saying they will vote McCain if Clinton isn’t the nominee, are republicans who will vote for McCain in november anyway.
Sad sad day when the republicans know the only way they can even come close to a win is to convince Clinton supporters that they would have voted for her in the General Election.
I wonder how many Clinton supporters are actually buying into it?

I live in North Carolina and it is amazing to me that there are a lot of people in this country that think John Edwards is so terrific. Remember John Edwards could not pull-in North Carolina for John Kerry…there was a reason for that!

A well-timed endorsement by Edwards for the next President of the United States. I wish Hillary would stop injuring the party and just drop out already.

Fired up, Ready to go!!
Obama 08

I voted for Hillary and she won my state’s primary by 10 points. She’s also won the votes of approximately 17 million other Americans. If she isn’t the nominee, it won’t take much for John McCain to convince me to become a McCain Democrat. I’ve voted for the Democratic presidential candidate for twenty years.
Why can’t the Obama people see it is NOT in their best interest to demean Hillary? If there weren’t so many HATERS out there, she’d already be the nominee.
Obama can become the president of Cook County, IL and all of the wonderful states that held caucuses. Last time I checked, there won’t be any caucuses on November 4.
The Obamanation will riot in the streets if Obama isn’t the nominee. Is the Democratic party supposed to be held hostage to their threats?
Keep fighting Hillary!

Clinton supporters, do we not all have the right to support/endorse/vote for whomever we choose? Why so hateful to Edwards? He’s a good man who ran a clean campaign. I bet some of you admired him until today.
Can’t wait for Al Gore to endorse now!

<>
Oh yeah, that really stung. No offense to good-hearted West Virginians, but that state has a rather large problem with racism. Reading some of the press reports out of that state make you wonder what century we’re living in.

TWO LOSERS ENDORSE ONE ANOTHER ONE.
I WILL NOT VOTE FOR NEITHER ONE.
OBAMA’S ELECTABILITY IS ZERO.

are these comments serious? There are two candidates with very little between them in actual policies but a fair bit of difference between them and the Republican candidate and yet some of you people would rather see that Republican screw the country up for 4 years than accept the Democrat candidate despite the fact that you are apparently Democrats? That’s an interesting stance. Personally I support Hillary I would have loved her to win but the simple fact is she isn’t winning. She isn’t winning the popular vote and she doesn’t have the delegates. The vote isn’t being stolen from her, she’s losing it. It might be a bitter truth but it’s still the truth and I would never vote for McCain simply because she lost because I think that makes a mockery of the whole electoral process and is quite honestly repellant.

It astounds me how the baby boomers will sell out their country for one of their own.

I have NEVER seen such a pathetic display of sore losers in these Hillary supporters.
They can’t accept that Senator Obama WILL SECURE the nomination for the Democratic Party once the Oregon primary decides it. They can whine about the swing states, blah blah blah. What these idiots don’t realize is that Obama creates swings states of his own. But don’t tell that to Hillary supporters; they are living in their own kind of reality, the same kind reality that Bush is living in. GOOD LORD, help these people.
Once Senator Obama hits the 2025 delegate plateau, Hillary should gracefully bow out and her supporters should just shut up and deal with it. Go ahead if you want to support McCain you’ll only support the war and a generational shift of the Supreme Court and the overturning of Roe-v-Wade….. but I guess supporting a losing candidate in Hillary is more important than protecting a women’s right to choose.

Edwards is irrelevant. If I were Hillary I would run as an independent and destroy the democratic party. Who cares, they are already a broken party. Their conspiracy against the Clintons just shows the many traitors lurking in that party. I am now ashamed to call myself a Democrat–what a shame!

What took this John Edwards sooo long? Its not like he’s a super delegate. He only served one term in the Senate and really did nothing but campaign to be Kerry’s (the rich establishment candidate) vice president. They are only out for themselves. This is so transparent We Americans need to wake up, take care of ourselves and our neighbors because these bozos donot give a rat’s ### about us!!!

Look at the current state of the two campaigns. I think the country overwhelmingly supports Obama. Limbaugh helped Clinton a lot too…
We don’t need another dynasty in the White House.

Anyone is better than letting racist Rev Wright & Rev Moss get into the White`House.
No way I’m voting for that racist Obama.
Call me bitter or “typical white people” if you want.
Our whole family’s votes are going to John McCain (a true patriotic war hero)

All of this is happening because Hillary is going to get a boatload of delegates when the DNC finally recognizes the Florida election.
The hope is that the voters of Kentucky and Puerto Rico will believe that their vote is not worth anything by getting a lot of endorsements and super delegates to declare. It didn’t work in Indiana or West Virginia. But, it’s a tactic nevertheless.
Watch out for May 31st when the DNC Credentials Committee gets together.

It’s so funny, before Pennsylvania, Clinton supporters LOVED Edwards. Now they’re saying he’s slime, an opportunist, whatever they can throw at him now. Just get over the fact that Clinton was a sinking ship long before Rush Limbaugh got behind Hillary’s campaign.

Here we go again. An unqualified man takes the prize away from a woman. I’m sick of this. This is the least qualified candidate in the last 100 years. He rattles on with hist hope and change like some Midwest retard, and Hillary with her infinite experience loses out. Sexism is alive alright. Keep fighting girl.

Funny for all that Obama preaches about and not being a typical politician is one and will owe favors till the cows come home…he is a kept man and usually delivers on his political favors examine his record…he is also has a King maker not a self made man…Obama smells of politics …first defends Wrights then abandons him..perhaps because Wright called him out as a typical politican and Obama did not want to be label as one…..

Most of you sound like little kids, grow up. Tell me what would you say if Edwards endorsed Clinton today? Would he be the low down dirt you are calling him now? of course not, he would be the hero.
Look at yourselves, everything good that happens to Obama, there is a problem for you. Every person that Endorses Obama that is a problem for you. The first thing you all say is that it has something to do with what he will get out of it or either he is sexist.
What in the h*ell are you? If all the good ole boys endorsed Obama only, then maybe I would buy your pathetic rants, but that is not the case.
Maybe Edwards came out because he is tire of this bs just like me. Maybe he thought about the mandate in Hillary’s plan that would hurt those unable to afford it no matter how she says she would be able to pay for it.
Maybe he realizes that poor people would be in trouble just like those in MA that have the healtplan and are incurring fines, poor people can’t afford the healtcare.
Just maybe people don’t like Hillary for personal reasons beyond what you and I know because we have never been that close.
Maybe you should stop trying to make every persons decision to back someone else about sexism or racism.
And maybe you should allow successful people to be just that and stop being so d*am jealous of them. They put in the time, energy, and sacrifice to aquire their education so why should they not be able to look good in a suit, or wear a pair of shoes that do not come from Walmart, and why should they not be able to buy a $400 haircut if they can afford. Their money would not be in your control anyway, they earned it.
All this elitist bs is just that, BS. I bet Hillary does’t shop at Walmart either and I bet her hairdo doesn’t cost $5.00 either does this also make her an elitist or just the people you can’t stand anyway?
You sound like a bunch of fools. How many of you are poor or middle class and go shopping at the most expensive store at the mall and can’t afford it, but do it anyway? Does that make you an elitist, no. Doesn’t make you smart either but you do it.
You all have very small minds, everything someone does, doesn’t have to be what you think it is.
Lastly, no one is stopping Hillary from campaigning, the SD are coming out because unlike you and Hillary, they actually trust the numbers and the experts in their areas of expertise. The numbers are against her so much at this point that even FL and MI would not give her the edge. Only the Clintons math will give them the edge until she raises enough money to repay her debts. Why are you not talking about that and how she has ill managed this campaign and the funds people have given and put into her trust?

Edwards’ Attorney General wish has been granted.
FYI: Grand Rapids and Macomb County are not only Michigan GOP hotspots but also large mid-west Mafia hubs. Take your pick.

Politics as usual…..
Go to Michigan with your new supporter. Look, I really care about you working class slobs especially since you are going to pay for all of my gimme programs. He disenfranchised Michigan and lower class people and now he trots out Edwards as the champion of the poor. Maybe you fellows can go get $400 haircuts together.

I agree with Becky. Buying into this hope and change business is for simpletons. I’m going to sit this one out. Hillary is getting screwed. We needed her experience and connections, instead we’re going to get Mr. 57 states. Disgusted.

Many of Hilary Supporters are trying to downplay/spin this endorsement as nothing but if Hilary got it all of you will be jumping ……. Hooray!!!!!!!

Yea, I might have to do a write in for Hillary..DNC – I choose not to support an inexperience, unknown candidate that is a very slick suit of fluff and one with little substance and actual record of his own doing not others building him up and also I do not want to join the bandwagon…

ALL I KNOW IS THAT ITS TIME FOR THIS ANNOYING WOMAN TO DROP OUT AND GO STAY IN HER HOUSE IN WESTCHESTER. ITS NOW TIME FOR THE CLINTON SUPPORTERS TO BOW INFRONT OF THE CANDIDATE- BARACK OBAMA, AND STOP DRINKING HATE-COOL ADI TOWARDS MY BOY, OBAMA. HILLARY SUPPORTERS SHOULD ACCEPT THE DEFEAT AND MOVE ON!!!!!!!!!!!!!11
OBAMA “08″

I think the bigger story out today is the demeaning way in which Obama treated the female reporter in Michigan today. He is really a disgrace and I do not want my son to grow up like him. Michelle must be so proud.

If Hillary Clinton Supporters do not care and are not angry about this endorsement, why are yall on this board talking trash? What is your problem? It is no one’s fault Hillary Clinton has not wrapped up this nomination. She was the person to beat. She was the one everyone was familiar with. Why now is all this Obama’s fault? All this anger you people, go to church and start looking at your own lives to see if there is something making you walk around with all this HATE.

SERIOUS????!!?!?!?

John Edwards is well worth waiting for, working for and sharing the campaign with. It’s been a long process for him to come on board. He’s so entirely welcome. Freedom’s ringing clearly and it just gets better every day. As for Senator Clinton, she’s going to be baggage for years and years to come.

This will have little impact. Edwards has picked the one he thinks will be the winner and that will not change anything. Edwards’ endorsement is like Michael Moore’s before the Pennsylvania elections. It had no effect because every moron who cares about Moore was already for Obama. Keep trying…

Even if angels endorse Obama , He will loooooooooooooooooooooooooosssssssssseeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

For those who want to threaten Obama into accepting Hillary as the VP, please consider this:
If Hillary is the VP, we will have 3 Presidents.
Such a situation is unsustainable for obvious reasons.
Every time Barack is going to make a decision he’ll have to check with “Masa” to make sure it is OK.
Come on people, we are better than this.

Its been a long time coming, finally Edwards steps up to the plate. I look forward to the real battle: Obama vs MCCain.

YES! YES! YES! And excuse me, how many more deligates are he bringing to OBAMA again!!
YES! OBAMA/EDWARDS 08!

Alright all you bitter, gun toting, religious zealot white working class…….it’s time to register INDEPENDENT.
Who says because you are registered as a democrat you have to vote for the party ticket? Don’t like your parties choice……REGISTER AND VOTE INDEPENDENT. There now don’t you feel better already.

Great news! Edwards is such a good luck charm when is comes to running for president! Isn’t that right Mr. Kerry? Doesn’t all America just love him?

Thank you, John Edwards, for attempting to heal the damage Hillary Klinton has caused the Demacratic Party. It’s so sad she had to go so negative. She’s brought out the worst in her supporters. Some have even washed and starched their white sheets that had been hanging in the closet for 20 years. This is what you all think is Good for this Country? This is a step backwards. KKK=Klinton

You Clinton supporters can kiss my a** Obama is going to make all you racists in America pay for your racism. Obama knows more of what we need to know to make things beter. This country is going to be going the right way after Obama is president.

Goes to show you what a SMART campaign he’s run. He made this announcement to end the WV primary news cycle. He’s SMART SMART SMART and he does it without polyester pants suits!
Hillary suporters….don’t go away mad
Just go away…..

As a former Edwards supporter, I am really pleased that John Edwards has finally taken this step.
It is fairly clear that Hillabeans pandering (to put it mildly) for the white vote in West Virginia made the endorsement a necessity to add his voice to those who are clamoring for Hillabeans to make a diplomatic exit since her campaign has NO chance of winning.
If there needed to be a nail in the coffin, and that’s debateable, this is it!
Obama 2008 — Yes, WE CAN!!!

YAHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO Iam so happy for him

We are not voting for Edwards were voting for Obama I thought Edwards was a stand-up guy, but I guess not he hopped on the Obama train, his political career what is left of it is probably ruined,I think his wife is a great lady and very courageous on the other hand he is somewhat of a coward in my eyes why wait until almost the end. The first thing out of the media’s mouth tonight was Edwards can help with the blue-collars workers and the white vote How racist is that? I will never vote for Obama I will vote for McCain.

Bonnie,
No one is swooning.
Are you calling those that support Senator Obama idiots?
This is probably not a good debate strategy.
Have a good day.

I hope they enjoy the ride on the bandwagon. The crash is going to be extremely ugly.

Mgck59 | May 14, 2008 6:31:35 PM
The choice is not just do we want Obama, but do we want McCain? And no we don’t want McCain.

This is no suprise. John Edwards wants the V.P spot…greg

Edwards was a total punk during the campaign. Every time Clinton tried to back him up he would kiss up to Obama. It was kind of disgusting. I don’t put any stock in the endorsement since it tells me more about Edwards than it diminishes Clinton. And of course Barack has that smarmy smirk.

You people that will vote for McCain if Hillary loses. That is absolutely fine because, its not Obama that loses, its you. I can’t wait to laugh in your stupid childish faces when McCain wins. I can’t wait to hear you stupid little people saying that if Obama hadn’t won, we’d have a democrat in office. You people are so stupid that you can’t see that if you are voting for McCain over Obama you are voting against every reason you are voting for Hillary. That’s ok though I survived 8years of this administration, I’ll survive another 4 or 8, whatever you idiots decide. My job is secure. My wife and I make good enough money to take care our family. My family has insurance. So, we’ll survive. I just happened to look at fuel prices from 1993 to now, Fuel prices have gone up nearly 400% over those years.

Is it me, or does reading through the comments on almost any story on the primary just seem to show the seedy underside of our society? Reading from above, you can see outright racism, indifference, blind loyalty, sheer ignorance, a plethora of people who can’t spell, etc. etc. etc.
Out of sheer curiosity, shouldn’t the person who will run our country be the elite of the elite? I wouldn’t want my mechanic (no offense to the guy) or a hairdresser (no offense there either) running the country. I’d want the absolute best and brightest. Now it’s a completely different story if you say “elite” and what you actually mean is that you feel they don’t feel your pain, your problems, etc. That’s one thing.
My question is, is America really ready for a black president? I would love to think so, but simply reading through the comments and seeing 20% in WV saying race was an issue makes me think not. It’s sad.

This has got to be one of (if not THE)most discouraging campains ever. A third party candidate probably could walk away with this election. Dems seem bent on proving all kinds of things of little relevance and the Repubs want business as usual. These are not usual times and most of the issues (which seem to remain unspoken) keep getting buried by inuendos and political correctness. May God have Mercy on us.

Somebody pass them a tissue……and watch out for that “kitchen sink!”

What about Bill Richardson? Obama promising the VP spot to a lot of candidates. Maybe Bill can realize the error of his ways and we will have a Clinton/Richardson ticket which would be better anyway.
The republicans will have fun portraying Obama/Edwards as two elitists.

Everybody who is impressed with the endorsement is already an Obama supporter. Does Obama camp expects that Edwards will win the blue-collar voters over for him? I don’t think so, Richardson couldn’t deliver the Latinos to him. Obama’s appeal has been very limited since the beginning of the process and is not going to get better.

I am a registered democrat. I am not convinced Obama is the answer. I will be voting for McCain.

Looks like he threw his support for universal health care under the
bus to adapt to the media’s choice. So much for his word about what
really matters to him. He’s already failed at becoming VP once. Will
he try again with Barry? Is that the quid pro quo for abandoning his
promise of universal health care? He could’ve remained on the sidelines where he’s been since he dropped out. It’s not like he had to rush to announce he was compromising his principles.

Edwards is a loser who couldn’t even carry his own state when he ran for VP in 2004. Which Blue collar voters back him. They all seem to be with Hillary. Who cares about whom loser Edwards supports. He has made a deal with Obama for VP . He has gotten desperate to get on the ticket. Let me tell you, he will lose again this time with Obama.

All timed to distract us. Only 19 delegates and they’ll make up their own minds anyway. Move on.

You maynot want McCain but, you’re giving him the presidency…wanna know why? Because bringing Edwards in at this point was nothing but, a ploy by the DNC to get people to vote for Obama..How insulting! Edwards doesn’t change who Obama is…he is still the same Obama he was yesterday… What this is doing is pissing people off. If that’s what you want…..in November that’s what you’re gonna get.

Some of the comments are a little disappointing. This is the democratic party, take a real close at their policy differences, there not very big. I do concede there are differences, but the idea that people will give up completely what they believe in and their hopes that the democratic party will bring to them just to go against someone who is currently opposed to your candidate. People like that are the reason why George W. Bush is in office, People need to realize that Clinton and Obama are basically discussing the same issues. This isn’t a popularity contest, you shouldn’t be basing your desicion on whether or not you like them personally, it should be based on which issues you feel are more important to this country.

FOR ALL HILARY SUPPORTERS!!!!!!!!!!!
Those of you who feel the need to support McCain or not vote at all, to express their anger/hate/revenge towards Obama are only hurting themselves. If Obama loses, he’ll go back to the senate and he’ll be alright. However, will you be OK with a failing economy, a continue war in Iraq, health care unresolved, conservative justices, etc…”
LETS ALL UNITE & STOP THIS BITTERNESS ….!!!!

Welcome onboard Mr. Edwards. Let the unification of the Democratic party begin. Are you listen Hillary? Stop with the selfishness and help unite YOUR party.

reedhead. We never had a problem with Hillary Clinton being on the ticket.
I never had a problem with Hillary as President. I just prefer Obama.
But come November I would be just fine with either of them.
Its people like you who cant come to grips with the fact that your candiate is losing. Its people like you who would rather see us at war in Iran, than see Obama as president.
Hillary really ticked me off with the way she has conducted herself during this campaign, But she would get my vote before thast warmonger McCain got it.

I haven’t seen so much primping since Diva’s Live.

Edwards Endorsement carries no weight, Edwards lost his presidential bid with Kerry and he lost his on bid.. Obama offered him a cabinet post and he like Richardson and Dodd are opportunist and Men that believes Women shouldn’t be President.

Channing, I agree! It is clear to me that there are a LOT of muck rackers on this board that are clearly attempting to inflame and divide the democrats. Hilary supporters (the real ones), please know that there are many of us Obama supporters who understand your disappointment. We do not think you are racist or stupid. We are hopeful that we will all come together for a new and nobler America.

I am filled with UNBELIEF & BETRAYL by John Edwards decision to back Obama! I had planned to write John Edwards in on the ballot this fall as I did in the spring. Needless to say it WON’T happen now. I feel he has abandoned a lot of people, who were thinking he was for the little people. Shame on you John!

Remember Hillary supporters if Obama gets the nomination, WE VOTE FOR JOHN MCAIN!
If Obama loses in Nov., she can re-run in 2012, and she could win big.
(After June 6th, no matter how much Hillary says he supports Obama, WE STILL VOTE FOR MCCAIN! She has no choice but to say she support Obama)

FOR ALL HILARY SUPPORTERS!!!!!!!!!!!
It’s evident you all ARE NOT voting for the PARTY but for the PERSON ….
saying you all are going to vote Mc Cain and not Obama if Hilary doesn’t get the nomination…
They should split up this party Democatic party … Clintonocrats & Obamocrats!!!!
don’t you agree .. because i know most of you all are not voting for the PARTY but for the PERSON as i said …

If anyone doubts the viability of a third party candidate…just read these responses to edwards announcement…and read between the lines. this election has been more divisive than VietNam was. And again the issues are never really addressed.

what was that red dot on Obama’s head?Was watching abc news 5:39p.m. Grand Rapids Michiga. thought it mite be red laser light?
Roy.

THEY ARE LOTS OF WOLVES (REPUBLICANS) IN SHEEP (DEMOCRATS) CLOTHING HERE ….. TRYING TO STIR UP TROUBLE!!!!!!!!!!

lol,
the racists are not most of the working blue-collar workers
THE RACISTS IS BARACK OBAMA & REV. WRIGHT & HIS MINIONS.

How convenient! This was a tactic used to divert attention from the fact that Obama got his butt kicked by 41 points yesterday. Won’t work for me… this independent who supported Hillary will be writing her name in come November!!!

Just a few weeks ago, there was a story that said John Edwards has NO CLOUT. So even if he endorses, it means absolutely nothing. Edwards wants attention… he is just like Obama, superficial.
They planned this for the day after Hillary crushed Mr arrogant..and he has to steal the spotlight from Hillary. He is a dirty player no doubt. To have this come in as breaking news, on the evening news is ABSOLUTELY RIDICULOUS. OBAMA MAKES ME SICK.
They are both nasty, they deserve all the dirt someone can possibly dig up on them both.

Reverend,
I did not mean that race and gender would play no role in November (although gender will certainly be less relevant unless a woman is the VP candidate for either party). However, The economy and the war will play a far more important role.
From a political marketing standpoint, branding Obama an “elitist” is powerful. This construct would allow white Democrats to vote against Obama while claiming that race is not the issue. The intent is to trap Obama.. If he is “well spoken” (a charged concept in itself), he is branded an “elitist”.. If he is “down to earth” he is “scary” or “radical” like the reverend Wright (or Sharpton). Obama has no choice but to face these tactics. However, McCain is not Bush. The election will be more about substantive issues than any campaign we have experienced recently.

I hope the white worker class voters send a clear message to sweetie Obama next week that we are not going to be bullied by his campaign.

With the DC establishment supporting Barack, specifically how is he going to change Washington?

Ready999……..this time next year you’ll still be ready….LOL There are not enough of you that support Obama to stop this. I think this was a ploy to give McCain the presidency I honestly do…There were not enough of you when Kerry and Edwards ran…and there are not enough of you for Obie and Edwards. Those of us that have made our minds up will either be a no show or do a write in…and Republicans will literally uproot from the grave for this election…..

Can Obama win- no! Will Edwards help- no! I will not vote for this corrupt trash. Democrats don’t want to win.
Clinton or McCain.
Hillary in 08!

Title should read:
“EDWARDS SNOBS THE WORKING CLASS VOTERS”
BO promised to pay his haircuts for 4 years..Sold out for Power Hunger!!!!
***NEWS ALERT**
CLINTONCRATS WORKING CLASS VOTERS WANT HILLARY FOR PRESINDENT ONLY! PERIOD.
NO ENDORSEMENTS OR CALLS FOR HER TO QUIT WILL CHANGE THAT.
WAKE UP DNC…YOU ARE LOSING YOU SPINE AND WHEN YOU GO DOWN THE TUBE IN NOVEMBER ALONG WITH OBLAHMA DON’T SAY ..WE DIDN’T TELL YOU SO!!!

Nothing brings Democrats and Republicans together like Obama. I have never seen so many Democrats flocking to the other side.

It is fascinating how all these liberal loosers are supporting the most liberal member of congress for president. The DNC is headed once again for defeat. Apparently they never learned from the Dukakis and Kerry defeat. They insist on nominating someone that will never win in middle America. Hello McCain, goodbye DNC!

I wonder if we could write-in Hillary in November?

Clearly, the democrats see the weakness in Obama and are trying to shore up the weakest link. Can You Say- President McCain!

One empty suit endorsing an even emptier suit.

The DNC and Dean and Pelosi and Kennedy
They pick the President you can vote for.
They say who you can elect.
SEND THEM A MESSAGE

McCain said last week “One of the consequences is the president of the United States gets to name his or her nominees to the bench.” Thank you ex-Clinton supporters for your vote, I hope you like my SCOTUS choices, but I don’t care if you do or not, I’ll be the decider with your voters and I’ll pick people who want to overturn Roe, increase police power & reduce privacy rights.

This is what John Edwards said on Larry King to THE ENTIRE COUNTRY TO HEAR: “SHE (Hillary) IS A STRONGER CANDIDATE AND HAS MADE A COMPELLING BASE FOR HER CONTINUED CANDIDACY FOR THE NOMINATION” a couple of nights ago. I WROTE IT DOWN. So here it is for those who did not have a chance to listen to the interview. To think that
I once had respect for this snake. HE IS A TWO-FACED LIAR WITH NO CONSCIENCE. I HOPE SOMEONE IN MICHIGAN ASKS THIS JOKER TO EXPLAIN IT. WHAT A SLIMY LIAR!!! What is he going to tell Larry King and his audience?

I am thrilled to hear that John Edwards (who was my personal pick for presidential nominee) has endorsed Obama. I could not vote for either one of them in my state’s “Primary” because I live in Michigan. The fact that they are announcing this in Grand Rapids, Mi is wonderful! I am sure the right wing will now try to destroy Edwards’ credibility. There must be a minister somewhere in his Southern past who SAID SOMETHING they can take out of context and use. I just don’t believe Americans are going to continue to base something as important as the Presidency on this kind of drivel. If there is to be change in America’s image, in the fundamental way America is run, then Obama is the leader we need. Many thanks to John Edwards, a decent, realistic man.

If Edwards were or ever was for the working class, he would have endorsed Clinton. He has just proven himself to be like so many other people, full of hot air.
Even in victory, you Obama people are filled with hate. You should all join his Church and rant about how you hate whites, and the USA.
Call me dumb, dirty whatever but I will always be faithful to my Country. That more than I can say for most of you.

I can’t believe Hillary’s supporter are like Japanese World War II kamikazis driving their life and the country into something horrible over losing a tight competition. Don’t lose a sight of your future and your kids future!!!! Macain?!! please take two minutes not a whole lot of time to see how he will be leading the country.

man ooh man.. ganging up again huh..
with edwards on top and obama still cannot reach the winning number!!
MEDIA SHUOLD STOP the lies!
TELL THE TRUTH: obama does not hove the wining number of delegates, obama will NOT have the winning number of delegates by the time the voting is over.
MEDIA SHOULD STOP the lies!
stop adding apples (pledged delegates) to oranges (superdelegates) and call them the same thing (apples). they are NOT the same. superdelegates vote in Denver!
they CANNOT pledge anything. this attempt to influence the voters is SHAMEFUL! pathetic!
Let people VOTE and COUNT THE VOTES!!
MEDIA SHOULD STOP the lies!

I too am very disappointed in John Edwards endorsement of Obama. I supported his efforts as the Vice Presidential candidate in 2004 and I actually favored him early on when he was still a candidate in the 2008 election. But I became very disillusioned with him as time went by. He did come from humble roots and he continues to talk as if he is a common man. He is the Director of the Center on Poverty at the University of North Carolina-Chapel Hill. He implies, by his work and his speeches that he understands the plight of the poor, so he pays $400 for his hair cuts, I have to cut my own. He professes to fight to help eradicate hunger, and he speaks of understanding the hardships that the working middle class and those at the poverty level are experiencing, but he builds his 28,000 sq. ft. house on a 100 acre estate. I live not 20 miles from him, and I can tell you that there are not many of those type dwellings between his estate and my 1200 sq. ft. home sitting on ¾ ‘s of an acre. Do you really expect that his endorsement of Obama will gain him the working middle class votes, or even North Carolina??? No!, he no longer speaks for us. Obama/Edwards, politics as usual.

John Edwards you are a real disappointment. I would have sworn on a Bible you would not caved in to the Obama tactics. Were you promised something for your endorsement? You certainly were not looking out for the middle class American. After all the middle class are the ones who carry the tax burden of this country. Without us you politicians would be nowhere. Next time you decide to endorse someone, consult with a higher omnipotent source. Then listen for the answer. If Obama gets this nomination I’m voting for McCain. Flatly, Obama keeps talking about a plan, but has not shared it with the American people. Evidently he is the only person that is worthy enough to know. That’s scary right there. He needs to at least give the American people hope. John Edwards you might say I and others have lost a lot of respect for you today.

This is an incredibly stupid move on the part of Edwards. I was one of his supporters but no more. He is as clueless as the rest of these sheep who want to lose in November. I can’t believe the insanity rampant in the Democratic Party!!!

Kerry/Edwards
They had a great administration and Kerry made a wonderful President.
Obama is TOAST !

If Obama is the nominee then I’ll vote for McCain in 2008 so that I can vote for Hillary in 2012.

MO………sorry I’m black have been for 52 years….so, are my children, my sister, nieces, nephews, cousins, aunts and we are not in favor of Obama…Oh my husband is white he NOW doesn’t want him either. Doesn’t trust him and has second thoughts on Edwards so naw I don’t think it’s racistism as Obama would like to have you think …..Nope just him personally

Near 50% of Democrats in swing states now say they will vote for John McCain or not vote at all.
This is game over for Barack Obama if he can’t swing these voters.
I guess the Bitter people are striking back at elitist Obama

Once again the Obama media propaganda circus wants us to believe that it’s all over, because a two time loser is endorsing Obama! Did I just wake up back in time and I’m living behind the Berlin Wall? Is this America? Is the democratic party democratic? The way the media is carrying on it’s beginning to look like some manchurian candidate movie. It’s time for Hillary to roll up her sleeves and show these wimpy men who has the grit and determination to lead this country. On to KY and OR! Time to send the DNC and the male media another message! We won’t quit and it isn’t over until the votes are counted at the CONVENTION!

WOW! IT’S LIKE SOMEBODY STUCK A STICK IN THE CLINTON BEE HIVE TONIGHT!!!
All the Hillary fans are going crazy running into the walls, TV screens, the windshields of cars, computer screens, everything in site with a rage!!!
Just like the bunch of insects they are!
Edwards is no fool, he is not endorsing a loser!!! And Hillary has already lost!
President Obama in 2008!!
What a great speech the next president just gave, did you all here it???

Rick at 5:21 said: ‘Edwards just hurt himnself more than helped Obama..What a backstabber and people will remember it.’
=======
Go ahead, call him Judas. That is who they are, all those people who do not vote for HRC. We have to come up with some insults for the those states too, and those young people who voted for Obama. The college educated ones, what do they know? Bill Clinton is right, they don’t need a president. The African Americans, who need them when we have the hard working whites on our side. And all those states who voted for Obama, they are dumb, except WVA, where the smartest people in the US live. If it were not for them, this country would go under. Who cares about the democratic party and their stupid rules? If we were Republicans HRC would have been the nominee by now.
Now, I feel really good.

Did anyone hear the music when Obama announced his “gift” Edwards? I hate when political ploys are so obvious.
I supported Edwards when he was running and even contributed to his campaign. I have no problem with his choosing Obama to endorse, my problem is with the way it was done.
He just said that he felt it would be divisive to announce at this time and would wait.
For him to come out now like this, it is disheartening. I told my husband that I was sickened by the way it all played out and he asked me, “Edwards is a lawyer just like the rest of them right?”
So true. I understand that politicians needs to know the way of the law, but you have to wonder who they are really looking out for.
I do agree that the nasty comments here are unbecoming and even read one where the person referred to the people in KY as “low class racists”. That is just aweful.
Politics is all about looking out for your own self-interests. If Edwards was the man that I thought he was, he would have waited until the elections were over and not participated in this contrived stunt.
I cannot in good conscience vote for Obama and my faith in any politicians character is almost zero.

It seems to me that people are forgetting that up until the 1980′s, the Democratic Party used ONLY superdelegates and the voters had NO SAY in who was running!!! Why should we get mad at the ones who make a career out of politics. We originally elected these people. I understand that everyone wants their candidate to win, but we need to UNITE to bring about any soft of change. I for one do not want another term of GW politics!!!

We’ll find out what change that will be when this country finally goes all the way in the toilet.

I’ll just not vote for Obama regardless of whoever endorses him. John Edwards was already a loser and it has proved more that he’s loser by endorsing Obama!!!

Isn’t this the same Edwards who, in an earlier debate with Obama and Clinton, tried to align himself with Obama as the two candidates who were about “change”. Is that when they ganged up on her, and Obama called her “untrustworthy”? Sounds like the good ole boys this year are gearing up for a twosome for the GE. They hope to get the working class votes? I do not think that will work. Too many people have seen the double-talk and will not vote for Obama regardless of who endorses him.
For John Edwards, he shows himself to be just another guy. He knows that Hillary shares his views on what this country needs, but she is a woman. Even though Hillary is so knowledgeable and experienced on the issues and represents the ability to make real change, Edwards choice is puzzling. I am thoroughly disappointed in him. He could have waited for the Convention. Why didn’t he? This action will not unify the Party, even if that is at all possible.

Doesn’t anyone realize this is bigger than superdelegates, its bigger than the US.
This is happening because the time has come.
Obama will win because Gods time has come.
Look at the world around you.
These things shall come to pass, get ready, be vigilant.

It’s so funny reading some of the comments on this site. The Obama supporters keep talking about about how nasty and bitter the Hillary supporters are but the Obama supporters are just as nasty and bitter. The democratic party will not unite until the Obama supporters start actively courting the Hillary supporters. We have a saying here in the south, you catch more flies with honey.
If the Obama supporters think they can win without Hillary’s supporters they’re delusional. It’s pathetic what’s going on now between both sides. Both sides are to blame. Both sides need to grow up and put their petty differences aside and unite.
John Edwards is an opportunist. He’s not even a superdelegate so his support doesn’t really count for anything.
I can’t wait till Novemeber to see how all of this shakes out. This election is the Democrats to lose. I’ll vote the way I’ve voted my entire adult life.

To the Hillary supporters: Give Obama a shot. I promise it will be worth it. He will lead us in making America great again. Really.

John…his endorsement does count. He has won delegates…

The way it appears, the Dems may loose in the general election. I’m not so sure that Hillary would want to see Obama win the presidency if he is the nominee. Hillary is running a “sour grape” campaign—-divisiveness— a spoiler at best. If Obama loses to McCain, she will say, “see, I told you, he was not electable.” In my own opinion, Obama has the most sound judgement among the three candidates when it comes to issues facing the country. But most gullible Americans are fixated on race matters. For those of you complaining about the economy, vote for McCain, and you will surely get another deplorable four years of George Bush presidency.

So typical of Hillary supporters…Had Edwards come out for Hillary he would have gotten showered with praise but now that he’s in this for Obama now “he doesn’t matter any way” And you wanna talk about how vile and evil Obama supporters are just look at the comments from Hillary’s die hards in this blog. Like a bunch of spoiled brats

John, you have turned into a big disappointment. You are another big shot Democrat trying to force your choice on us. I thought that you had better judgement. Now I know that you don’t.

I dont get it.
How could you say Obama will change the system when he is so beholden now to a lot of establishment politicians who endorsed him.
Are you dumb to believe that these politicians will not demand for favor in return for their endorsements.

SNUB?
um, apprently ABCNews didn’t listen to Edward’s endorsement.
he complimented Hillary as much as one can while endorsing someone else,
referring to her as a woman of “steel”.
ABCNews is clearly trying to devide
more so than the candidates ever thought of. but of course causing trouble gets people to read and watch your news, so i shoudn’t be surprised.

obama does not have the wining number of votes, obama will NOT have the winning number of votes by the time the voting is over!
the democratic process ends at the Convention! that is the way it was designed, to end at the convention.
LET THE AMERICAN PEOPLE VOTE!
VOTE VOTE VOTE!

IF EDWARDS WOULD HAVE ENDORSED HILLARY…
Then I am sure all the Clinton fans would have been falling all over themselves with complements for Edwards!!
So you see how you guys are??? That’s the difference between Obama supporters and the Hillary gang. Because if it was the other way around you wouldn’t have seen all this outpouring of hate for Edwards, as we would have accepted it…
We would question why, and not have been happy, but nothing like this!!! Just look at yourselves, you should all be ashamed!
I guess that is what the Clinton Koolaid does to a person, fills them with hate!
President Obama in 2008!

Barack Obama has no experience to be the POTUS plain & simple. He would be very dangerous to America.
If Hillary does not get the nomination, count me in as a McCain supporter.

Luisa: I agree with you!!! You are Latio, and I’m asian. We will not vote for Obama, absolutely not. A majority of my Chinese friends also said to me that they wouldn’t vote for Obama. Sorry, Obama, you have lost so many votes. You political career will be over after you lose the GE.

Lots of pure disdain for Obama is NOT because he is black, it is because he is a democratic elitist that looks down on parts of America.
We don’t need a person like Obama to divide the nation.
We don’t need him & his racist clan like Jeremiah Wright & the Black Panthers roaming the White House.
We are not bitter Americans clinging to guns & religion.
WE JUST DON’T LIKE YOU BARACK OBAMA.
Why vote for a divider like Barack Obama, when there is a great patriotic war hero that has always loved his country on the ballot.
I will never vote for Obama if he is the last democrat on this planet.
My whole family will vote for John McCain.

What Obama supporters don’t realize is that many of us are as worried about what he will do to the country as we are about what McCain will do to it

You are not worried, you are just more worried about having a black president denigrating that White House

Chad……I don’t think you realize that every time you call people names it reflects the intelligence of your candidate… Most of the time the insults come from the Obama supporters..It’s as if they can’t have adult logical conversations.

Most people on this board should realize that Edwards has the right to endorse anybody he chooses. It is selfish to get bitter because he did not endorse the candidate of your choice. Quite frankly, I think those of you complaining and making racist comments should take the challenge and run as a candidate for the presidency. Then you will see how easy it is to raise money and get votes. Obama has run a brilliant and effective campaign. It is sad that most of you have put on your racist blinders and are living in the darkness of denial and ignorance. Vote for McCain, and he will surely remind you of the Bush’s presidency that you are now complaining about.

WHY ALL THE LOSERS ENDORSE OBAMA?????
A LOSER ALWAYS ASSOCIATE WITH ANOTHER
LOSER.
ONE LOSER+ONE LOSER=2 LOSERS.
WHO CARES ABOUT EDWARDS.HE IS FREE TO
ENDORSE ANYONE HE WISHES.
NOBODY JUST NOBODY CANNOT CHANGE OUR
HEARTS AND MINDS ABOUT OUR CANDIDATE.
McCAIN/HILLARY ’08

I’ve paid attention about this campaign for months. After bad thing happened for Obama, some significant supports will back him up. So, Sen. Clinton cannot get a Democratic nominee because “FIX IT IN”. “Democracy” means “Buddy Systems”
Sen. McCain 08.

Maybe tomorrow Richardson will admit that he made an error in judgment and come back to Hillary’s side now that he knows he can’t be VP. I still think Clinton/Richardson would be a strong ticket.

That is because no one expected Obama to be in this position especially Hillary. It is ok to be cool with black folks but its not ok for them to run for the White House.

Jason you sound extremely racists right now. But, that generally is the case when people point fingers. It ususaly is them.

Everybody keeps talking about Oregon and Hillary…….LOL If Obama is nominated in November he won’t win it either LOL

Ready333…..No dear YOU tell alot about your candidate….hmmm pacifier, pampers….

THIS WON’T MAKE A BIT OF DIFFERENCE. IT’S TOO LATE IN THE GAME TO MATTER.
OBAMA IS STILL A NIGHTMARE FOR AMERICANS.

Change. It looks like Barack is bound to be the Demo. nominee for sure. Come November, president? Changing Today means Changing Tomorrow. Next. Change the look of the House and Senate. For far too long we’ve had stagnation lingering, no colloboration, no cooperation. Retirement helps one see things from a different perspective. Vote in those that can make change happen. Let the White House reflect the will of the people. Government for the people, by the people. Is America ready for the changes to come?

Ah another marketing ploy. Other than when Edwards was a senator, has he EVER BEEN ON A WINNING TICKET? I didn’t think so.

I meant conservatives will stay home

‘not all hillary supporters will vote for mccain.’? do you want to bet?
ha ha ha :))
i cannot believe some people are sooo naive..
LET DEMOCRACY RUN ITS COURSE!
LET THE AMERICAN PEOPLE VOTE!
VOTE VOTE VOTE!
MEDIA SHOULD STOP the lies!
stop adding apples (pledged delegates) to oranges (superdelegates) and call them the same thing (apples). they are NOT the same. superdelegates vote in Denver!
they CANNOT pledge anything. this attempt to influence the voters is SHAMEFUL! pathetic!
Let people VOTE and COUNT THE VOTES!!
MEDIA SHOULD STOP the lies!

Average Joe, no they won’t, sorry. And you are the one who is naive if you think that. I will vote for a dem no matter who it is. And they are a lot of us who feel this way. So it’s just wishful thinking on your part. Like I said it doesn’t matter anyway. Obama will beat McCain.

Is Gore going to be a little(opps, large)sissy boy sitting on the sidelines like he was some all knowing Buddha or is he going to look under that tummy and see he still has his the needed equipment to come out and help the party?

What about WV??? McCain will lose the GE. Most of this country knows that the Republicans have got to go. Just look at the recent congressional elections they lost. And it should have been an easy win for them since they were republican districts. Dems take it this time.

I bet Obama has promised him Attorney General. Great – an attorney general in bed with the corrupt trial lawyers.
No thanks. President McCain – get use to it.

Teddy Roosevelt is supposed to have said something like “Politicians and diapers should both be changed frequently…often for the same reason.” My question is what do you do when you run out of diapers?

Dear Rebecca: by the time you realize that the vast majority of us who chose to support Obama over Clinton in these primaries did not do so because we didn’t want to see a woman in the White House, it may be too late.
For the record, I can’t *wait* to see a woman in the White House. Just not this particular woman, at least as compared to the current Democratic alternative. You may believe that my judgment is faulty, but do you really think you’re going to convince me of that by claiming that it’s all because I’m thinking with my “‘lower’ head”?
I could just as easily accuse you of being racist or misandrist by denying your support to Obama once Clinton loses the nomination, or blame the hostility of your discourse on PMS. But I wouldn’t, because that would be absurd.
When one gets “madder than hell,” as you advise, it’s all too easy to get swept up in that emotion. Democrats are very good at this, and Republicans are very good at exploiting it by being calm, collected, and above all united. The GOP have managed (just barely) to hold together an otherwise implausible coalition of social conservatives, neocons, and libertarians, because the alternative as they see it is to turn things over to “madder than hell” Democrats. I can’t say I entirely blame them, but I’m still not voting for McCain.
I can only suggest that sour grapes over Clinton’s almost certain inability to win more states, more pledged delegates, or the popular vote (even if MI and FL were to be fully counted) will not hasten the inauguration of our first female President. It will only hasten our national decline — and potentially cripple the Democratic Party for a generation to come.

Edwards endorses only the math. Its meaningless.

AverageJoe, not going to happen. Most of my family is republican but not conservative and they won’t be voting at all. They won’t support McCain. You’ll see a lot of republicans feel like this. But think what you want, doesn’t mean it’s going to happen.

Yes, Mary, because if Obama were president, there’d be no problems whatsoever. No foreclosures, nothing.
If you have some time I’d like to sell you some waterfront property in Arizona, for really cheap!
(and they say Obamabots are educated??!!)

Jo we haven’t had a draft in years because when was the last time we were fighting 2 wars at once. A reinstatement of the draft is a very real possiblility. Our troops are very thin and kids aren’t enlisting like they use too. The percentage is way down. They keep calling my 18 year son trying to get him to enlist. They are hurting. And a draft could be McCain’s only solution, no thanks.

AverageJoe, polls mean nothing, they change daily. Today Obama was up 7 points over McCain in 1 poll. And they had Hillary up 12 points in Indiana is some polls. And who are they polling, I’ve never in my life been polled. Do you really think this country wants McCain, no they don’t. The conservatives came out to get Bush elected. They’re staying home this time so that will cancel the dems voting for Hillary.

Hillary supporters angry? You bet your bottom dollar we are angry. We have sat here for months watching our candidate be called a witch, a bitch, emotional because she is on her period, we’ve seen tee shirts with “bros not hoes”, we’ve seen sexism in every single bit and piece of this campaign and we are sickened by it. We are pissed. And Obama? How many more times does the patronizing idiot have to dismiss women with a “hold on, sweetie” comment before someone hauls off and slaps him? Yes, we are angry. We have fought this kind of sexism all our lives, in the work place, in business, in discrimination every where we turn. And now to see it from our own party? Hell,no. We are defecting in droves, and we will put John McCain in the White House because the Democratic Party does not treat women fairly, they no longer represent us, and we have no more loyalty to them.

It is past time for this party to find some unity and come together to beat back the republicans. We see where their great policies have gotten us over the last 8 years.
Lets pull it together people…we have a lot of work to do!

I’m so tired reading these Clinton people if she lose you would vote for McCain. PLEASE,PLEASE take your simple minded a## on. She did say her people were the (how can we say) DUMB…..lol

lisa……..please the Republicans are not pissed off at McCain they think the DEMS are stupid enough to believe it..It is all political…they want people like you to be gullible enough to believe that he pissed them off…..LOL

mgck59, where do you live and do you listen and watch the news and talk to republicans. lol, Yes they are, which is good because a dem will win.

I’m completely appalled and disappointed by Edwards’ endorsement of Obama. A much earlier endorsement would have made more sense since it may have helped Obama win more of the white blue collar voter base. At this point, though, it is obvious the endorsement is to garner the VP nod. How tacky and self-serving of Edwards – I was a supporter of Edwards 4 years ago and again this year – he just lost that support. What a hypocrite.
At least we know what is/was in Hillary’s closet – we’ve yet to learn what is Obama’s past that McCain can use against him. Don’t be fooled folks – with people like Carl Rove supporting the Republicans the dirt will be dished up to Obama on a sliver platter between now and November. The eloquent speaking will do nothing for him then as by that point people will want answers. Do we really want another 4 years of Bushism? WAKE UP!

i think the one thing we all need to realize is that we need a democrat to win the next election. we can not vote for the same man who has lost two times to george bush to be president…whether you were a fan of hillary’s or a fan of obama’s, i think we all know that a democrat is the way to go. john edwards made an endorsement determining who he thought would win, and i think we all should rally around barack obama (whether you like him or not), so we can get rid of the regime we got now. we can not have another 4 years of the bush administration, its time for change, who cares who it is, we gotta stand behind any democrat that can bring this country to where it should be, hillary or obama, lets go!!!!!!!

the one thing for all of us to realize is, hillary will not win, its impossible for her to win, so its time to forget about her being president, its too late. lets all put personal differences aside, and make sure we get the right candidate in, we do not want john mccain, he makes zero sense to be our next president. i understand if you are upset that hillary will not be the democratic nominee, but its up to us to rally around barack obama, so we can bring this country back to what it is supposed to be.

average joe: your numbers are wrong. sorry about that
and you know… NOBODY can generate the money that we can over at the Obama campaign can. its how we buried Hilary. THAT and a superior ground game. ALL grassroots… which means it belongs to US and not some overseas company or country trying to buy our president.
Mc Cain can’t do it. He couldn’t do it if it were Hilary or Barack. The republicans are sinking… and sinking fast.
do you have ANY idea how many NEW democrats there are now? you guys can take some credit for that…. but we did a profound amount of work in getting NEW voters.
the right wing is going down!

once again, lets put all differences asides democrats, independents, and left wing republicans…we can not have a 3rd term of george bush. whether you are a hillary supporter or an obama supporter or a mccain supporter, we all know that mccain is not the way to go. i understand that you and y’all(for the people from the south), might not like obama, he believes in the same exact thing that hillary belives in. so lets get together folks, and bring back america to what it is supposed to be

HEY AVERAGE JOE, STOP BLAMING THE MEDIA FOR YOUR CANDIDATE’S LOSS! SHE IS A SORE LOOSER, AND SHE HAS LOST THIS ELECTION!
U HILLARY SUPPORTERS KEEP BRINGING UP NUMBERS TO CONSOLE YOURSELVES,,,,,
GUYS THIS THING IS OVERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR
OPEN YOUR EYES AND SEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
ACCEPT THE DEFEAT FROM OBAMA, HE HAS CLEARLY WON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11

If Hillary abandons the Democratic Party, then her followers can abandon the party too. But Hillary has fought for the Democratic Party–she didn’t fight long and hard just so all her followers could suddenly turn into Republicans, or do suddenly stop believing in the Democratic Party policies. Respect her fight.

Obama may have a so-called “Preacher motivational speaker style.” But he is a better candidate. Good J.E. USA is not a monarch. The Clinton dynasty musn’t continue .It’s not good enough. For you racists, cast your votes based on what is in a man’s heart, and not on the basis of his colour. PLEAAASE!

I think it is a mistake on Edwards part to endorse Obama. He is not Edwards friend He just wants his endorsement. Obama does not care about the blue collar workers. He just wants to get into the white house so he can run the country his way. If it isn’t run his way then it is no way at all. Obama is not for the white people but only for the blacks and Islamics. Hillary is for all people and she should get all the rest of the superdelegates votes and oust Obama. I will never vote for Obama. He also still has ties to Rev. Wright and he always will. He may say he doesn’t because then people will not vote for him but you will never break ties to someone like Wright. He still believes in everything Wright says. Don’t let him kid you. There that is my opinion.

It’s easy to see how the bush-league got elected twice after reading some of posts from the “geniuses” on here. Edwards is a good guy, unlike bush/cheney he cares about the less fortunate. All the candidates knew that the poverty issue was a no-win for them but Edwards still took it on, because he is sincere and cares. He came from a modest background. His endorsement DOES matter and will help Obama in key areas. Obama 2008!!!

Remember Ohio, WV and Penn voted for Bush last go around. Ohio was in a very, very, very bad economically. WV citizens struggle. They didn’t learn anything from their vote for Bush. Now they go and make another bad choice. Stop paying attention to the votes from these states.

Jane, PA did not go for bush in 2004 or 2000. PA is a little more intelligent than Ohio.

Look at total votes:
Hillary = 16,691,639
Obama = 16,071,846
If Obama had popular votes like Hillary will he quit if people out there are shouting at him to drop out the race??????
Hillary supporters please don’t be discouraged by those Obama’s jerks. Hope that Hillary will be independent, then, Obama will have no chance whatsoever in the fall! We will go for Hillary!!!! Go Hillary!! We salute you!

What an outrage … that Edwards would forgo his own priorities … at this time … hmmm …. it’s gotta make you wonder.
I thought he was a man of substance … he’s proven me wrong and shown his true motive … “To heck with my core beliefs … I’ll do what ever it takes to grab a a crumb of power”

Oh and I forgot to say why… you can only vote for an individual that is party affiliated. Hillary Clinton is Democrat so that is why the vote would go to whomever the nominee was if it wasn’t Clinton… The Independent is an established party…
