Edwards Supporters... Does It bother You That He Hasn't Endorsed? |
|
I guess the reason I ask is that, well, wouldn't it make it easier for you to decide which way to vote?
Edwards will undoubtedly endorse which ever candidate he thinks will accomplish HIS agenda, right? So wouldn't it make it easier for you to make a decision if he told you who he was supporting?
I also say this, because if he doesn't endorse, he really comes across looking like nothing more than just another politician. I'm not saying that is what he is, so please don't skewer me.
But I would like to know which way he leans. I know he said he was "suspending" his campaign, but with his name still on the ballots, he can still earn delegates and seat them how he pleases.
That being the case, wouldn't you like to know which way he leans so that if you disagree with him, you don't risk essentially giving your vote to someone you DON'T support?
This is an honest question. I'm not trying to attack anyone here, so please keep that in mind.

7. No. I make up my own mind. |
|
I didn't agree with Edwards on everything and I might not agree with him on whether he'd prefer Obama or Clinton.
I'm not surprised that he hasn't endorsed. The smartest thing to do if he wants to have an influence on the next administration in terms of his agenda, is to support whomever is going to win. And that's not clear yet.

8. Don't expect him to endorse. We know him here in NC |
|
His whole purpose has been to run for President.
We elected him and he did nothing for NC. From the moment he got to Washington he started planning his presidential run. Although he is a nice man. He is very bitter about this. Don't expect him to endorse anyone until there is a clear nominee. And thats only because he has to.

12. Your question seems kind of silly... |
|
you acknowledge that he has only suspended his campaign... you acknowledge that he can still get delegates... and then you wonder if we're upset that he hasn't endorsed?
You do understand that if he endorses, that's it... right?
