With John Edwards announcenment that he's dropping out my vote now goes
to Hillary Clinton.

I'm sorry to see John leave the race.

1. Obama here.
There's NOTHING for progressives in the Clintons' campaign. Not much with Obama, either, but I think I might be able to muster at least a little tepid enthusiasm for him.

5. I hope that you will find more reasons as time goes on
but I understand that it is difficult now. I am just glad you are willing to look at Obama and that you see the reality of Clinton.

10. I'm still debating....in my own mind. Obama has Illinois locked up, so my vote for Hillary or
Edwards, if he's still on our ballot, won't mean squat here. Obama, the last poll I saw, had 53% of Illinois voters. I guess, it will basically depend on how close Hillary's numbers are to Obama's in the next week. IF it's close, I'm voting for Hillary. If it's not close, I'm voting for Edwards if he's still on the ballot. If he's not on the ballot, Hillary gets my vote.

11. My vote would have gone to her, but I voted already absentee for JRE.
If he endorses Obama, I'm fine with it, but he is still my last choice.

13. I am REALLY sorry to see the man go
I posted a thread about it. JRE was my strong #2.

I know it doesn't help now, but I'm betting we'll see him in a Cabinet-level position.

:pals:
