There ain't much to add, is there?

Do you have the backbone to stand up for what is right and moral and just?

VOTE JOHN EDWARDS ON FEBRUARY 5TH!!!

6. Again, if you agree with Edwards message, ...
the only way to get Edwards message included in the Democratic Party Platform at the convention,
is to have delegates for Edwards. The more delegates he has the bigger voice he gets. Here in
CA. delegates are distributed proportionately, not winner-takes-all, so if Edwards recieves at
least 15%, he'll get delegates.

More votes he gets the more delegates he receives. The more delegates he has at the convention,
the bigger the voice. If he has enough to keep Clinton or Obama from winning outright, then
Edwards becomes a power broker, and will have more of his agenda included in the Party Platform.

So, if you agree with Edwards message, the only way to include his message in the Party Platform
is to continue voting for him.

The DNC wants the least number of candidates so that their Platform is not all over the place.
With Edwards out, then they only have to include the corportists platform, and not the populist.

So, I say continue voting for Edwards, so that your voice is heard.

5. Edwards just as well be
getting some much deserved rest than to be beating the bushes across the nation and not get any media coverage...

Hillary is the establishment

Obama is the establishment with glitter

12. I already voted...
Edited on Sun Feb-03-08 05:29 PM by 7horses
for Edwards in early voting in Tennessee. If you are an Edwards supporter, then vote for Edwards if his name is on the ballot. The delegates will still count. Anything can happen. We must believe and vote for our choice.
