Why John Edwards should shut up and drop out.
Edited on Sun Nov-09-03 04:41 PM by ThorsteinVeblen
Voting for the war and the Patriot Act and brainstorming some domestic spy agency similar to the KGB isn't enough for this man who can barely wipe his own ass.

Now he goes into attack mode against the only leader the Democratic Party has. Trying to shut down debate on the Republican "Southern Strategy" and preventing Dean from wooing the good hearted folks from the South back into the Democratic fold.

Edwards should shut the hell up before he slapped down. He has already wasted his short ass political career waging a stupid, premature, idiotic, arrogant and ill-advised presidential campaign instead of keeping his Senate seat intact for the good of the Democratic Party.

1. Locking
Please see rule #4 here
http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_topic&forum=104&topic_id=463744

4. If you wish to start a vanity thread (ie: a discussion thread in which the sole purpose is to share your personal opinion) you must state your opinion in a non-inflammatory manner which respects differences in opinion and facilitates actual discussion.


Thank you

3. At least Edwards lerend his lesson about the war

and voted against the $87 billion for it. Dean on the other hand has lost my support and my respect since voting to keep funding the bogus war.

Fuck Dean he has shown his true colors as a Rethug-Lite!
I am backing Kerry or Edwards.

4. This is why I'm sick of him
1) I'm one of his constituents. I sent him a letter regarding Iraq and Bush's lies. He sent me an arrogant, dismissive letter in return. "We did what was right (by ridding Iraq of Saddam)" and so forth.
My friends have recieved similar letters from him.

2) I hate looking at results of Senate voting and seeing "Edwards: Not voting" beside his name on issues that I feel are important. The taxpayers are paying him to be an absent Senator. I resent that. That tells me what kind of president he would be.
Right now, he is just engaged in posturing. For what, I don't know. I'm very disappointed in him.
