So, My sister n law finally saw what is happening to John...with no media.
She lives in North Carolina. The front page talked about victory and Clinton's non-concession blah, blah... Nothing about John. She's been listening to go on and on about this and that, and last night I watching the returns and was estatic about the numbers for John, considering where they were before the debates last week. Anyway, she said this morning, damn, nothing and I'm in North Carolina. You are so right... for a 3 person race, its very two faced. I might get her pumped up enough to start working on the campaign... who knows.

GO JOHN GO!!!!

3. Wow. My husband didn't really believe the Edwards black out until
I told him to keep an eye out for it. He was amazed, especially after the debate coverage on the news last week.

4. The average American will never notice.
They are too busy doing what they are told to do.

If there are three candidates, why are only two mentioned in the media?

The answer to that question should scare the crap out of everyone, but most will go blindly along doing exactly what they're supposed to do. The corporate media is doing its job beautifully, and most Americans are cooperating as expected.

I sure don't see much to indicate change in 2009 if people don't wake the hell up!

Living in Florida, we are totally out of the loop. Of course we havn't had one democrat candidate come to florida but not even a republican candidate has come to my part of florida. The only thing we have seen outside of republican ads is Barack ads running on CNN, but that ad didn't do him justice. He wasn't very photogenic in his ad. So, I feel your pain. We didn't get any Hillary ads at all and I'm in a withdrawl from it. :)

8. You just have to get on the internet and do your own research.
None of the candidates are perfect. They all have flaws, connections to people who aren't of the best character, etc., so you have to decide who best reflects your interests, and support them.

If we can take a step in the direction to correct the abuses of the Bush Administration, and give people back their rights, end the war based on lies, and level the playing field so all are treated equally and have the same opportunities, we'll have taken a step to put America back on course.

If I lived in Florida, I'd be going crazy over the things that have gone on down there since 2000. And Jeb Bush as governor on top of it all.

I feel for you - but hang in there! Hopefully things will get better soon.

7. i knew that as soon as dennis was gone
Edited on Sun Jan-27-08 12:24 PM by madrchsod
i don`t watch the debates so most of my info comes from du..ya that`s not biased..lol,and air america. when the majority of posts here are about hillary and barrack and the buzz on air america is how little john is mentioned anywhere in the msm it`s been plain that the msm wants and will get hillary and barrack.

john was my candidate in 2004 and i was pleased that kerry chose him for vp. it`s a shame that john never had a chance because his principals are closest to my man dennis.
