That takes a strength that is admirable?
John Edwards, where have you gone? What is admirable about her continuance to divide the party? What is admirable about saying that Im getting the white vote, and he cannot, and what is hard about that? What is it that you are celebrating, her dividing your party all the way to Denver? This mixing of fighting with delusional behaivor has got to stop. Let's just write the headlines now, that she is a fighter, Obama is not a fighter like she is. What is that you are congratulating her for, continuing the new math? I dont get it, am I smarter than people that have a (D) after her name. She cannot get the nomination, so her choices are continue to beat up a member of her team with hope and anticipation, well....She can't get it so what the hell is she saying, and why are people other than the (Idiot Pundits) looking at her behaivor in glowing terms! Your enabling her behavior John Edwards. How could I have been so wrong about you Sir! Its embarrasing for me!

Edwards is playing it close to the vest. Obama made overtures to him to get his delegates, and he politely declined.
I think he's deluded himself into thinking that he might be Hillary's VP choice. At the very least he's hoping perhaps it gets so close that he can play kingmaker and get something for the delegates pledge to him.

I cant state again how embarrased I am for originaly buying into him. I know he has done allot for poverty in that area, but I was drawn to him for what I perceived as strength in other areas....It's almost like he is mocking me.

I've voted for John Edwards twice, once for Senate and a second time for VP. I really don't understand why so many people are hung-up on what he says. Yeah, I guess he picked-up a few followers before he dropped-out, but his endorsement wouldn't have made an iota of difference in North Carolina, so why do so many people elsewhere care what says?

1) His endorsement would have made a big difference in February!
2)I was misled to believe his rhetoric about change and everything he stated in all of the debates about Hillary.
3)Moving in to North Carolina, I didnt care if he endorsed because I was done with him by then, because how could you sit here and be "willfully ignorant as to the way this campaign has seperated the party, and it shows me as a voter, that he is not made of leadership mentality!
4)He then goes on t.v. and again acts as if he doesnt understand the situation. See the Post that started this thread! He is entitled to not endorse, I being someone who gave to his campaign, and believed in him, have to say why I'm unhappy with him!

FWIW
In his demurral, Mr. Edwards may have slipped: “I just voted — I just voted for him on Tuesday,” he said. But given Mr. Edwards’s Southern accent, that pesky pronoun may have been plural, albeit in a shortened form: “I just voted for ’em on Tuesday.”
David Schuster, an MSNBC host, attempted to ferret out the truth. “So it was a him or a her that you voted for?” he asked, interrupting the former senator. Mr. Edwards then backpedaled, saying, “No, no,” and laughing.

Oh no, adabsurdum...I understand that he will admit on a later date his stance. So I could care less who he voted for, well full disclosure, I guess him supporting her after his rhetoric in the debates would be hypocrisy to an sane person, but, it's just not leadership to me unless your apart of the coalition on media pundits and other who love the "game" of politics. I guess he will be known as a statesmen for staying out in their eyes, and we all know what they spin(because they have the microphones) is more important than truth in the Politics arena. I hate politics, I have never wanted the summer to come to an end before it started before in my life.
