I admire the passionate support of Edwards supporters for their candidate.

I think it speaks well for Edwards, and the message he has. He is a great person, just not my favorite among the three.

Although I prefer Hillary in this primary, I do not feel real passion for her. I would have only felt that if Al Gore had entered the race.

Anyway, I just wanted to let you all know that your dedication is really wonderful and inspirational.

2. Classy post!

Thank you.

3. MyPetRock, for what it's worth, we're sticking with our guy, but this Edwards

supporter will cast a proud blue vote for Senator Clinton if she is the nominee, or Senator Obama if he is.

There are some crass, tacky, corrupt, lizard-souled Republicans out there who need their butts kicked, and I'm standing behind whoever is nominated to do the kicking.

Thank you for your post.

5. At some point we all have to stand together against the REAL enemy.

It's scary how far from recognizing that fact we Dems seem to be, right now.

[saltpoint]

7. Critical mass for that will be tough until primary season is over or

a candidate finally emerges as the inevitable frontrunner.

You are absolutely right -- that real enemy is out there and we need to be allies in combatting it.

[Kajsa]

Thank you, MyPetRock.

I am very passionate about supporting John Edwards.

He speaks for me.

I appreciate your post very much.

4. It is appreciated

thank you.

6. This Edwards supporter applauds your post Rock

John inspires that in his supporters and that's the passion that made him our candidate. I wish his message had been given a better shot in this circus.

8. This Hillary supporter agrees with this piece. The Edwards people have my respect,...

...since most of them them haven't expressed the same kind of rabid anti-Clinton vitriol that many of the Obama supporters here have.

Bravo to JE supporters. I also do hope he does NOT drop out of the race. And that if he does, that he is given an important position in the new Dem administration.

9. Thanks Rock-

Yep, we got the passion, now if we can just get some more votes! lol And nice work of the 2nd place in SC!

And thank you for adding to the great conversation we should be having here at DU.

10. thanks, MyPetRock!

[Beaverhausen]

11. Very nice of you, MyPetRock

We certainly are a passionate group! It's nice of you to say so.

And I too will vote for whoever is the nominee- I still hope it's Edwards!

:hi:

[Triana]

12. Thanks PetRock...

...we appreciate YOUR support.

[Turn CO Blue]

13. Many thanks for such a positive post!

Like you, I knew that if Al Gore had gotten in the race, I would have worked my fingers to the bone. As it is, I do have real passion for Edward's message and capabilities - and find him to be inspirational.

I will stick with Edwards all the way to Denver (I'm here already, so I'm waiting for him to come visit us!) But however it turns out, I will vote with conviction for the Democratic Party's nominee.

14. PetRock,

You'd be welcome to sit on my windowsill any day. Thanks for the kind comment.

15. Thank you!!

[NastyRiffraff]

16. Thanks for the classy post, MyPetRock!

It speaks well for you AND your candidate. Sometimes it's easy to judge a candidate by some very nasty or condescending posters (mostly Obama supporters, by a large margin), but this a breath of cool, fresh air. And if I judge by the nasties, I also have to recognize people like you. Thanks again!

[saracat]

17. Thank you mypetrock.Your kindness is appreciated. We don't get all that much of that

so you truly stand out as a beacon of light! Thanks again!

18. Classy with a +

[Apollo11]

19. The fact is that Hillary needs Edwards to help her stop Obama winning the nomination.

As long as the pro-change vote remains split between Obama and Edwards, Hillary still has a strong chance to come through the middle and win the most delegates.

So sorry if I don't trust a Hillary supporter saying nice things about John Edwards here on DU.

[Raine]

20. THANKS...

so many here keep saying our guy should get out, it's nice to hear something different for a change. :-)

[Silver Gaia]

21. Thank you so much for this post, for your understanding, and

for reaching out a hand to us when we needed one.

[ColesCountyDem]

22. Now, that's pure class!

Thank you! In return, please know that I will gladly work my butt off to elect Sen. Clinton in November, should she gain the nomination. The same goes for Sen. Obama.

:hi:

23. Thank You! It's nice to see such a classy post :-)

[Ninga]

24. So very nice to read your kind words. None of us are the enemy. I think that if

you ask a jobless person, or a homeless person who the bad guys are......they are NOT going to say....Obama/Hillary supporters on DU !!!


As an Edwards supporter, his speeches take me by the hand and put me into the shoes of the less fortunate. I can not walk in them.....but by damn.....I can speak out for them. I don't have the time nor the inclination to argue about other candidates.

:hi:

[Laelth]

25. Plenty of room on this bus.

Feel free to hop on. I'll vote for the Democrat in the general, no matter who gets the nod. I expect you can say the same.

26. Another Hillary supporter here, giving props to JE and supporters.

I've always liked John and still do.

I'd be honored to have him as the Dem nominee.

27. Feels like I'm back at the old DU again

with your kind post. Thanks
