Pick Edwards as your vice president. The man will give you a boost, and he might take some of the tarnish from the primary campaign off of you. You have beaten each other up so badly, that people here at least were looking to Edwards to be the candidate for president. Because they are tired of the political infighting that has been going on. We are all Democrats, we need to stop eating our own. I agree with Hillary and Obama on the things they talk about, but I really believed Edwards when he talked about change. He seemed more sincere. Yes he flung some mud too, but not as bad. Please run on your platform and let you ideals and policy speak for itself. And pick Edwards as your running mate.

1. Best way to do this is VOTE FOR HIM IN THE PRIMARY.
Unless you're in a "winner take all" state, he can use those delegates in the convention.

I think it speaks volumes that he didn't endorse anyone.

I'm sticking with John. Hope many more will do the same.

2. Oh I will, just to voice my distaste right now for the way the other two are campaigning.
I can't believe the back biting and in fighting we are seeing in the party, I sometimes wonder though if it is not the media playing this stuff up, and making a mountain out of a mole hill.

3. Of course they're feeding it...
and the voters just follow along... repeating the smears and lies, like good little lemmings.

Hillary cried... Obama is Muslim... it's disgusting.

5. after he gave Kerry such a hard time?
Edited on Wed Jan-30-08 03:45 PM by neutron
Kerry seemed convinced Edwards was using his position to
campaign for his own presidency. He was bummed that
Edwards refused to attack when asked to, and didn't like
Kerry's logo, so came up with his own.

That's all fine and good, but I don't think anyone will be asking
Edwards to be their runnng mate. Try Attorney General.

7. What Foxer said.
Kerry did not fight very hard. And if they want a strong running mate Edwards would be the best.
