A Word from an Edwards Supporter to Clinton and Obama Supporters
So now that my guy Edwards has decided to drop out, there will be many undecideds out there. Many of us are left trying to decide between the candidates that are left and in my opinion, the behavior of both the candidates and their supporters on DU have left many of us Edwards supporters disgusted. From posting unflattering pictures of the other candidate and saying how could you vote for this guy/gal to the constant bickering, bitching and moaning. Seeing shit that isn't there, sexism, racism, reading something into nothing over and over, doing the other sides work for them.

I can't claim to speak for my fellow Edwards people, but KNOCK IT THE FUCK OFF! Do you not know how ridiculous you sound? And to quote my guy "How is this going to get health care for children?" We have serious issues facing us and we need serious answers and serious people to give those answers. Handshake-gate, what a joke. Hillary the same as Bush, come on! Please people, for the sake of this country, it's time to get serious. If we don't, we will look ridiculous come November. And like Lewis Black says, "It's like a normal person not being able to win in the special olympics." Let's not repeat that mistake, there's too much at stake. It's our election to lose and if this place has anything to say about that these days, we will lose it.

Time for the grown ups to straighten things up around here. Are you listening grown ups in both camps?

As for me, I planned on caucusing for Edwards, I still haven't made up my mind as to who I will caucus for on Tuesday, but, I do have a leaning, unless they convince me otherwise. It's just so frustrating to see such pettiness directed toward our own.

:banghead: :rant:

2. Neither
Of them are getting my primary vote.

I can't do it. I'm so fed up.

I'll vote Edwards in my worthless primary. It's not for a couple of months anyway and it will all be over by then.

3. We caucus this Tuesday
I can't not go. I can't do it. So, there will be a point where I will have to choose between the 2 left. I think I have my decision but, I could be swayed.
