Hillabama is a TV show. John Edwards is the real thing.
While the media-chosen ones are spouting platitudes, he is delivering a clear and relentless message of great importance.

It'll take a while, but this change will come.

3. Edwards won a Senate race. For one term.
That is all.

5. Obama has only been in the Senate a year.
And (John Kerry)John Edwards won the presidential election in 2002. Read the Robert Kennedy article in Rolling Stone - available free online. Also reference the book "Fooled Again" by Mark Crispin Miller.

8. er, no. Obama has been in the Senate for 3 years. He was elected
2004. And before that he was in the Illinois Senate for 7 years.

I've read the article. What does it have to do with tonight and Edward's showing?

11. You got it
Now the fun begins. The "inevitables" have both lost, now it's time for some real poltics. Things are really going to "change" and people will start think about the message Edwards has, and it will work! :think:

13. Edwards has the real message.The others have begun copying it but it is false.
Edited on Wed Jan-09-08 01:32 AM by saracat
Hillary is the status quo and Obama is the candidate of appeasement. Only Edwards is the Peoples candidate and the true agent of change. The others want to work within the broken system.

14. what crap.
I have no idea what JE really believes or stands for. And I sure have cause to wonder. Lousy votes on critical issues in the Senate. Fortress. His speech to Israelis last January. His scrubbing his support for designating the IRG as a terrorist organization in September.

I watched all three speeches tonight. Obama's had real emotion,power and specifics. Clinton's was dull. JE's was his stump speech and not terribly good.

And it won't change. Shortly, his union support will peel off. By Feb 5th, he'll have little of it.
