So how does everybody interpret Edwards' 11/02 message?
I believe he said that they assure us that "all votes will be counted and every vote will count."

Kind of a strange prelude to a concession speech. It sends a mixed message and I'm still stunned and confused and let-down. Hate to say it, but it seemed like lip-service to me.

1. Edwards wasn't the boss...
...Kerry was.

3. As honest as they have been

why would they both lie to us?

It doesn't make sense because it would be best for them not to mention the vote issue.

4. this is how i understand it
i think i read this on kos, but i could be wrong so take it for what its worth. i guess edwards really wanted to fight this thing hard. he is after all, a trial lawyer. kerry ultimately decided to throw in the towel.
