You know , I can't help wondering how John would have done in Penn.
I think he would have whooped both HIllary's and Obama's ass.I think John would have done very well in the rust belt.It is so sad to me to see what is happening to my party. I am pulling for Hillary in Penn but I would have been so proud to support Edwards as our nominee.We really blew it.And no thank you, please no trolls saying I am "bitter".I also think he would have done great in Indiana. I will never believe "electability" was the reason for his dsuspending no matter how much Obama supporters want that to be true.

1. I agree, especially re: Indiana, where John Mellencamp would have teamed up with him.

I used to like John Nichols, but after reading that blog post, I wanted to spit. JRE is not obligated to endorse anyone.

2. He would have kicked ass.
And we can be sure he wouldn't be dumb enough to make some Independents wonder if they should vote republican by saying stupid things. I don't think J.E. would have said that John McCain would make a good president. What's up with that? Haven't both Clinton and Obama said that now? GOD! They sure do say some dumb shit, don't they?

3. I'm just glad he isn't endorsing !
It's helped me make up my own mind. I'm pulling for Hillary too. Simply because I just like her better.

8. I think one has to vote one's conscience
John dropped out on January 30th, but I still voted for him on Feb 5th since he was still on the ballot, and I live in Barack's state.
