1. He's The Threat to the Fanatical, Isn't He?
He doesn't have a fan base--therefore, he has either no appeal, or a much broader appeal.

2. Because the republican committee's demand it, they have no one
in thier camp who even comes close to any of our candidates and they know he is popular, the republican soldiers are more than likely all over the net ordered to malign edwards any way they can, as I said, the latest use is really reaching...

Makes me like him even more than I did since that is all they seem to have, going after Elizabeth with that backwater redneck a week ago didn't help them much I guess.

3. Edwards said our country needs us, all of us - NOW - grassroots to bring
the country back to what it should be. However his hair looks, and maybe he'll shave his head at some point in solidarity with Elizabeth if her medical treatment impacts her hair ... he is a magnificent pres candidate.

5. Well speaking as secret freeper, I must say Edwards 4th breath
in the last campaign appearance was awful. So forced and insincere. Why can't he breath like a normal American?

6. remember the "Dean-Scream"?
the corporate media live to capture a moment in time, and magnify it to such a degree that the single image defines the life.

7. I sure don't like Edwards all that much, but I won't join the firing squad either.
At least not over petty things. If we want to discuss valid political reasons, I see no problem with discussing pros and cons, in a civil manner. With a primary coming up, we have to do that, to some small extent.

All of that said, I'll vote for anyone with a (D) next to their name in the general election. The Supreme Court's ruling on abortion rights a few days ago should clearly illuminate why that is the case.

11. People focus on tearing other candidates down, rather than building up their own.
I can't believe the negative crap people here say about the Clintons, Edwards, Richardson, Clark, etc...If you candidate is great, say why!

12. Maybe it's an ego thing DU has, making candidates publicly respond
to DU chatter. Such powah.

13. He just looked like he was chiseling
which is not a great idea for somebody whose funding is coming from a lot of poor folks instead of a dozen rich ones.

Some folks out there resented it.

The truth is that the GOP has malevolent pixies out there to dig up dirt on all Democrats. It's very telling that all they found was their old standby, the OVERPRICED HAIRCUT.
