Congratulations to Obama from a loyal Edwards supporter.
I will support Senator Obama with everything I have if he is the nominee. I don't feel the same way about Senator Clinton. I want to feel passionate about the candidate I support. I have always said if it can't be Edwards, please let it be Obama. I can get behind an Obama candidacy with almost the same passion I now have for Edwards. I know I can.

I am still hoping John can pull this off but Obama and his supporters have my sincerest congratulations.

9. Me four!
I cannot bring myself to vote for Hilary, for several reasons.

I could vote for Barack though, if he gets the nomination.

11. I won't vote for him.. I won't be part of a slow train wreck. I don't trust him
at all. I've always been good at reading people... I don't trust Hillary.. but you know how she's going to run the show.. Business as usual.. But Obama no way.. not enough experience to have a grasp on reality... his advisors scare me.

12. Having a toddy right now myself. It helps
Damn I wanted Edwards to get at least as many votes as Hillary. Have to be satisfied with a 9% spread. Ugh

5. Oh, not me.. He is more centrist and more "police state" minded than Clinton
and Edwards. I will not work for Obama. I wouldn't work for Clinton either. I would vote for Clinton over Obama though. But I know my neighbors and co-workers.. McCain has FL, unless John is allowed to run his race.. There are 3 people running.. and I really despise the media for putting this showcase spectacle in front of the rest of the world..

8. me too. I wish that Obama & Edwards could work something out....
John's voice needs a national platform. I don't care if it's VP, or Labor Chief, whatever.....

13. That's awesome, Inspired.
I prefer Edwards over Obama as well. But Obama will make a great President, and I think he'll beat Clinton.
