   Two arrogant elitists. Charming. Just how is that ticket supposed to make a difference with the voters Obama needs to reach out to for the general election? Neither of them has a clue or respect for middle America.

   What a bunch of rubbish!! Who in the world ever seriously thought that the USA is racially “divided”? Have I missed something, here? Lest a few hatemongers spill venom and bile, I know more people of my own skin color that disagree with me than people of other races. Change we can believe in! Some one change his diaper..

    Inspiratinal quotes from John Edwards:

    There is so much work to be done to treat gays and lesbians and gay and lesbian couples with the respect that they’re entitled to. They deserve, in my judgment, partnership benefits. They deserve to be treated fairly when it comes to adoption and immigration.
    -John Edwards

    If we do the work that we can do in this country, the work that we will do when John Kerry is President, people like Christopher Reeve will get up out of that wheelchair and walk again.
    -John Edwards

    What rubbish.

    Too far left? Please. Edwards had a fairly moderate record in the Senate. It’s his rhetoric that’s gotten hotter. His base consists of the legendary “white working voter” that everyone thinks Senator Obama is having trouble connecting with.

    Partnership benefits for gays: another sham. They already have the rights to contract with each other and will property.

    A sham? Imagine being in a loving relationship with your husband/wife but not being allowed to latch on to his/her health insurance. That’s a pretty big deal.

    Underseige is right about the Christopher Reeve quote. That was a stupid and horrible thing to say. But the first quote is beautiful.

    And southside is absolutely right. All the macro indicators point to the Dems. We could nominate an actual lock of Edwards’s hair and a $200 slice of ham and it would still win they had Ds next to their names on the ballot.

    I’ve always marveled at the “two america” rhetoric. And he’s bringing it up again now. Was hoping one day he’d drop it and step back into reality, but…SOL on that.

    This, however, might be a blessing in disguise. Silky’s numbers were certainly not that great, or he’d have been a major contender. Obama has alot of baggage (Wright, MO, and so on) that he needs to contend with and really rise above. I’m not sure he’ll be able to.

    I do know, however, that its bad tactical policy to interrupt an enemy when they are making a mistake. I say let them continue

    Please don’t forget that when the leftists say “neocons” they mean Jews. They would throw Israel under the bus a lot faster than BO threw the Rev under the bus.

    This endorsement makes perfect sense. It’s the 2 America ticket! The latte liberals vs. the bitter gun clingers. It is good to remind us how awful, ignorant and greedy the majority of Americans are.

    But, in line with BO’s message, things are changing! I went to a Turkey Shoot in Bitter Church, PA and they served a nice chardonnay with the turkey!

    And “Turkey leftovers sandwich: with arugula and grey poupon on a ciabatta” sounds pretty good, does it not? Liking good food does not disqualify one from the presidency!

    Cicero, I don’t know what you’re talking about. Marriage comes with benefits. These benefits are not available to most gay couples. That is a grave injustice. Simple as that.

    Democrats in America (but not in NV, NM, TX, AR, TN, OH, PA, NH, MA, RI, WV, NY, TX, IN, FL, NJ, MI, ,AZ, CA…) have made their choice.

    Which one is it for Obama? Do we have 57 states or do we just have 27? (Sorry, D.C. is not Dodge City, and is not a state.) Edwards is seemingly as dumb as Barry, just with better product in his lettuce.

    Rusty, any non-standard relationship has two options.

    1) Find an employer who offers those benefits. Take the extra step to have those protections (POA, Living Will, trust agreements, etc.)

    2) Whine moan and complain that reality has to cater to their whims, no matter what anyone else does.

    Geriatric: you make it sound like being older is a bad thing. For shame, you age chauvanist pig.

    Lobbyist owned: Really? So Hillary and Obama have NO lobbyist influence or money? REALLY? You are so very naive.

    Pander to the right: Have you actually read anything here, or read anything McCain has done or said? Can you be that oblivious to the huge dissatisfaction the so called right has for McCain?

    Neocon infested: “neocon” is another word for RINO. See above.

    Loser McCain: that is to be determined.

    How did you ever get your Ph.D.?

    Just for the record, why don’t you list those obvious faults in your candidates? I think that would be instructive, both with respect to your veracity and reasoning powers.
