****Official LEAVE THE EDWARDS SUPPORTERS ALONE thread****
Good god people, give them a chance to get their heads together. The edwards supporters know that Hillary and Obama are both running. Give them a while and they will make up their minds one way or another.

Edwards hasnt even said anything yet.

Offer them condolences if you have to say anything, people.

We're very "official" today! :D

Sorry that we all can't resist jumping all over this huge breaking story - it's just too big to ignore!

4. Agreed. The "corpse" of the campaign is still warm and people are already haggling over the
remains.

My sympathies are with you all.

5. What did I miss, are they circling like buzzards?
I'm impervious to solicitors; too contentious and crazy.

we don't need pressure from anyone. Most of us already know who our second choice is.

8. I second this - other than sympathizing with the loss of their dreams
Most of us know at least some of what they feel because of how we felt when someone we saw as the best candidate dropped out - whether it was Kerry when he didn't opt in or Clark or Dean in 2004 when they dropped out. It hurts and for many, time was needed before looking closely at the others.

There is plenty of good information (and much garbage as well) on the remaining candidates. If they are up to looking at it, they will. I have never been an Edwards fan, but wish him and his supporters well. I hope that he keeps up his advocacies of the poor and disadvantaged - they need advocates, and Edwards is a great advocate.

15. Thank you for saying this.
I have been reading around the threads trying to find some more info. and yes it is hard wafting thru so much blechy stuff.

I am an Edwards supporter, and I need some time to mourn. Once I hear what John has to say this afternoon, I Will have a clearer idea of where to go from here.

:cry:

16. And quit trying to lay a guilt trip on us if we don't support your candidate.
by saying we will be helping McCain win if we don't vote in the GE.
