I woke this morning with this simple thought. "Edwards supporters are visionaries."

[Ninga]

Edwards didn't have to sell us or convince us that his kind of candidacy is exactly what this country needed.

We were very early on, looking for the candidate with the strong populist message. We shared Edwards vision which looked past the center, and into the world of the working class and poor.

We all connected and bonded with each other, us Edwards supporters, because we immediately recognized that we shared the same populist values.

I knew what I wanted in a candidate. I already knew my heart and my values. I was not a blank slate, I knew my mind and listened.

I connected immediately with Edwards message because it held the promise of restoration.

Edwards did not measure his words, nor did he cover up or hide from the truth the daily struggles of the working class and poor.

Edwards supporters shared Edwards vision, which is why we now struggle and mourn, we do not want to give up to the center, because we know the center to be a vacuum that sucks the life out of progressive values.

We are in the same mess as we were in 2004, mark my word and remember this well, youngsters.

1. I decided I was going to vote Edwards anyway on Tuesday

and I can live with that choice

[Ninga]

10. Do you have any idea if others will be voting for him on Tuesday too???

[Fresh_Start]

12. my husband convinced me

I don't know about anyone else

[Ninga]

14. You are another one that's married to a good man. He sounds like he is lucky to have you!

:hi:

[Fresh_Start]

15. thank you, he is

but I had to convince him to support Edwards.
He was enchanted with Paul

[Ninga]

17. Whew!! You saved him! Good job!

[smoogatz]

2. Geniuses. I'd say geniuses. And much nicer than other people.

Not to mention less smelly. And better looking. In fact, Edwards supporters are like a seperate, superior race, almost.

[Ninga]

7. Well gee thanks for the compliments, but I am very smelly and just an average person,

and certainly not seperate.....except to say, I am from the moon.

An old hippie boyfriend called me moonbeam on many a back-seat-frozen-winter-night.

18. "Edwards supporters are like a seperate, superior race, almost."

Oh so that's why you look down on Obama supporters!

I was wondering what that was all about ... :eyes:

[roguevalley]

[ScreamingMeemie]

3. They were, simply, my husband.

[Ninga]

11. It is safe to say, you have good taste in men.

:loveya:

4. Good point! His campaign attracted quality people

lots of people who focused on issues and solutions, less on strategy and the "horse race".

I seriously think a lot of Edwards supporters should run for office themselves.

[SammyWinstonJack]

5. Vote for him anyway.

:thumbsup:

[Ninga]

9. Of course......and thanks.

[Yael]

6. Thanks Ninga!

He still has my vote in the primary. The other two just don't stack up to a hill of nothing for me.

[Ninga]

8. I am with you. I am already lobbying Edwards supporters here in Ohio to vote for him in the primary

:hi:


:thumbsup:
