ATTENTION DU EDWARDS SUPPORTERS: We're Not Alone!
If you have not already, and are in need of a fighting-spirit refresher, please go here:

http://blog.johnedwards.com/

Scroll down and look to the right, where people have posted comments responding to Edwards' campaign suspension on Wednesday. MANY PEOPLE STILL INTEND TO VOTE FOR EDWARDS! The comments are also encouraging us to use the media attention that Edwards is currently getting.

For those not (yet) aware, many Edwards DU'ers (including myself) still plan to vote for Edwards.

It also occurred to me (just before I wrote this message)...might Edwards run as an Independent?

Some stuff to consider...

4. why we should continue to vote for Edwards on feb 5 (n yes I wish he would go independent)
but I dont think he will go independent, but we have to continue voting for him on Feb 5 to give him THE POWER


John Edwards has framed the issues all along - Single Payer healthcare, not

Universal, lobbyists out of the elections, America taking care of and giving a

chance for affordable college, taking care of our Vets, bringing home our

people from Iraq within a year without permanent bases in Iraq, restoring

America and every issue until Obama and Clinton "borrowed" his populist stance.

But "borrowing" words is not a commitment to carry them out whichever

one gets the nomination for the general election.

That is why we must must must continue to vote for John Edwards on Feb 5

The more delegates he collects even though he has "suspended" his campaign (I

suspect because of the MSM essentially boycotting coverage of him and the

failure of the feds to match funds until March) the more power John will have to

extract a written committment from either or both candidates to adhere to John's

and our populist issues
