After Edwards, I am not voting in the primary.
I believed that John Edwards was the only person with the ability to lead this country during this terrible time. I can't bring myself to vote for one of the two children.

Thank you, John. I have not been this gutted since 2004.

Thanks for confirming to me that the good fight isn't worth fighting at all.

2. I believe JE would be very disappointed in the type of sentiment
you expressed. But, it's certainly your vote to cast or not cast as you see fit. Your disappointment is understandable. I hope you feel better about things in time.

3. I've been considering pulling a Repuke ballot in Mass. so I can
vote against Mitt. the thought of Mitt carrying my home state again makes me sick. Since Edwards, my first choice, is out and Hillary, my 3rd choice, is eexpected to romp in Mass., I have no problem with voting against Mitt. If Obama closed the gap in Mass., all could change.

4. He's still on my state's ballot and I'm still going to vote for him.
Maybe more people will do the same and give him a few more delegates.

6. John Edwards was my compromise vote.
There is no possible compromise left in this race.

10. Indeed.
I traveled from Gore to Kucinich to Edwards, but
my journey ends there.

9. A vote for Kucinich, Edwards, or Gore would at least express your displeasure. (NT)

11. Some of his policies are very close to Clinton & Obama. Don't give
up. We need a turnout of 75% to ensure a win in the GE. Please don't give up. Did I say please?:hug:
