115. Still supporting Edwards
I voted for Edwards in the NH primary. The thing I find the most sad is that he has gotten more press and his message has gotten more play since his suspending his campaign than when he was running.

I hope people vote for him on Super Tuesday. I would love to see him get a higher percent than ever before.

I was listening on NPR when they were talking about the Edwards voters and who they were. I think the media is just as far off with that as with everything they have been saying lately. I heard them say that Edwards voters were not very educated, angry and more of the lower economic spectrum. I am sure that some Edwards supporters were, but none of the Edwards supporters I know fit that profile. They also said most Edwards supporters will go on to back Hillary- something else that I am a little surprised at.

I don't think the media should be having as much influence as they have in this election. I thought that there were rules about equal time.

But the main issue is that we get a Democrat in the White-house. I think no matter what we will all work very hard to see this happen in the end. I just think that it is a shame for this country to lose out on a candidate with true vision and a plan, which is who John Edwards is.
