1. I saw her in a Town Hall meeting
(on C-SPAN) a few weeks ago and she was just amazing! She was with women who had relatives fighting in Iraq. She was AWESOME! She's a great speaker. Very down to earth and BRILLIANT! I just loved her. Thanks for the heads up! :hi: I hope this is 12:30 A.M.????

4. Listen for a fellow DUer during the call-in segment on this
Posted on another thread, a DUer from Nevada called in and got to talk with Elizabeth Edwards about being a strong woman -- AND she mentioned DU AND Edwards said she reads and gets good information from DU!!

Sorry if this is a spoiler, just didn't want anyone to miss it!

6. Great
Edited on Mon Oct-25-04 12:20 AM by GRLMGC
What do you know, people of color? And a substantial number as well. Not the token two you see at Cheney townhall. Another observation, she gives information rather than being bitchy.

On edit:
That nuclear chemical plant thing was kinda freaky. Oh well, it's true.

7. she is just wonderful
the big media whores ignore her because they know she could appeal to traditionally conservative voters and is a threat to bush. notice how they show the hateful bitch lynne cheney and her asshole husband dick who do nothing but spew hatred from their mouths.

but john and elizabeth edwards speak of what they will offer to the country and help make lives better.

24. Would love to have seen more of her
But at least we'll have the next 4-16 years! She's so smart, and she talks to people respectfully, something the Cheneys seem to have never learned. I wish I knew more about her, but I do know she's going to be a great asset!

10. fantastic!
She's intelligent, articulate, and look at how well people are responding to her. I can't believe the amount of material she's been able to master in such a short time.

Edwards/Edwards 2012!

11. Lord, is she good at what she's doing. Her talk about malpractice insur-
ance is about everything you need to know.

By the way, can you imagine Bush doing what she's doing? I'd love to see her debate Bush.

19. I cried
She gets up there and she's so smart and she knows everything, then she's just an earth mother ready to give everybody a hug. What a blessing these 4 people are to this world after the mess Bush has made of it. We simply have to get them in the White House. I am re-energized for the final 9!!

20. Newbie here, please be gentle :)
I saw Elizabeth Edwards on C-Span earlier tonight and thought she was amazing. I've been lurking on DU for a few weeks but when the caller mentioned it, and EE said she reads it, I decided it was time to log in. I am not a Freeper!!!!

On the off chance that Elizabeth sees this, I just wanted to tell her that I think she is great. I loved the way she answered the questions without reverting to the standard talking points. She was down-to-earth, articulate, warm and sincere. And, not that it matters, but, I thought she looked beautiful. I also want to thank her (and John and John and Theresa) for working so hard to restore this country to its pre-Bush greatness. I know they all must be very tired but it will be worth it on Nov 2 when we send the Bush thugs packing.

21. welcome
there is nothing wrong with being new here or having low posts.

the freeper accusations are not just about low posts but about the content of their posts mostly. but the fact that they have a low post count does indicate they only came on to troll.

but your post shows you are a true DU member.

and i agree, she was great. i'm glad she reads DU. Kerry's stepson Chris reads DU also and he is also a member and posts under his own name at times.

25. Thanks
Thank you to all of you for the warm welcome. Don't worry, I have no plans for making negative posts. I'm not worried about the polls or the stupid rumors or the Bushies' pathetic attempts at an October surprise. And I sure as hell am not afraid of wolves!
