35. I agree...some that haven't been questioned isn't going to get by always
Edited on Fri Jan-11-08 04:51 PM by surfermaw
Edwards, must be pretty clean, when you bash a Lawyer that can afford a 400 dollar hair cut and he and his wife both lawyers can afford any home they want, there can't be much more out there to beat him over the head with..By the way today's Charlotte observer has a cartoon, with Kerry sticking a big knife in Edwards back... I think the deal with Kerry supporting Obama, may help Clinton, and could hurt Obama, Kerry isn't like that much in either N.C, or SC

14. Huh? You don't see assiduous adherence to a discussion of the ISSUES and PRINCIPLES?
Edited on Thu Jan-10-08 05:38 PM by TahitiNut
:evilgrin:

No - neither do I. :shrug:


If it ain't about the "horse race" the it's about the personalities (without benefit of ANY psychological analysis or training) or haircuts or tears or ... Jesus! Give me strength!

Let's just turn over elections to the American Academy of Clinical Neuropsychology, American Psychiatric Association, American Psychoanalytic Association, American Psychological Association, Association for Behavior Analysis, Association of Black Psychologists, Federation of Behavioral, Psychological and Cognitive Sciences, International Association of Applied Psychology, International Society of Political Psychology, National Association of Cognitive-Behavioral Therapists, Society for Personality and Social Psychology, and World Psychiatric Association!!!

29. That is right tahiti. I think a deal may be in the works.
Richardson would bring Texas, New Mexico, Arizona, California, with Colorado and Utah(barring the prophet Mitt as and opponent) representing lots of votes too. Hi panics love Richardson. So do I.
He really helped about 20 years ago, and I haven't forgot it. He works for those he represents, he works hard at it. Yeppers, I would love to see that ticket. Landslide City Bingo.

10. That was very gracious, and appreciated...
I was sad he dropped out. I don't understand the machinations of the political machine as we're supposed to in order to interact intelligently here (:eyes: ); I simply feel that I think it's good for the democratic process to have more than two - more than three - candidates in a long primary season. We learn sooooo much more that way. I wish we still had about five candidates in the race at this point.

16. Of course, John is still in.
Edwards is the only Democrat who has polled consistently over the last 6 months as beating all republicans.

21. The Edwards' are sincere about their willingness to fight for America.
They KNOW America AS THE PEOPLE.

They have battled corporacrats on behalf of the common citizen their whole lives.

The only thing I'd advise them is this: distinguish the POWER-MONGERING CORPORACRATS from the starter entrepreneurs. The corporatocracy LOVES consuming ON the small corporations as examples (which CAN NOT POSSIBLY COMPARE).

Edwards are PRO-ENTREPRENEUR and PRO-WORKER!

We need to be precise about that enemy to entrepreneurs and workers: the CORPORATE SHARKS.

25. He (Richardson) is another class act
He has a LOT to offer, and I hope he is listened to. I am glad he all but came out for John Edwards. Richardson needs to be tapped for some post in the next admin.

32. Very nice.. Way to go, Governor
I hope Richardson endorses Edwards. It will be very interesting to see who has the courage to follow if he does.

Now we are hearing that his Lieutenant Governor, Diane Denish, said she is waiting to hear from the Clintons, and that she is definitely thinking about endorsing Hilary ( and may have already done so)

She says that she has always wanted to see a woman as President and I am sure she isn't alone in that.

INVESTIGATE IMPEACH INDICT IMPRECATE INCARCERATE :patriot:

33. I thought he was good to speak up about
incivility (a nice way of putting it) during the debate and I think this is more evidence of it.

I hope there is an important role for him in the next President's administration.

40. If you liked that, you ought to read:
The Last Stand of John Edwards (Brent Budowsky)

http://pundits.thehill.com/2008/01/11/the-last-stand-of-john-edwards/

He is an "anti-pundit", or a counter-pundit. He really SLAMS the cable news pundits who get it wrong every time, like Blitzer. :crazy:

He very much agrees it's a three person race. Also, has some interesting predictions of his own, and suggestions for Edwards to improve his standing.

(I started a thread on the Budowsky article if you're interested)
