Edwards says he is in this through the CONVENTION!

[MalloyLiberal]

This was on SNUFFULUPUGUS. He said he is staying in. George Snuffulupugus pressed further, he said through the convention.

1. that is good for Clinton

if his supporters went to Obama, it would be over. At the convention, Clinton has a chance.

[onehandle]

2. that is good for Edwards

if his supporters went to Obama, it would be over. At the convention, Edwards will win.

[K Gardner]

27. Edwards is a fighter. He has a message to get out. This is more than just the Election for him, it

is the fight. Money is pouring into his campaign, despite the media blackout, because people know they need someone to speak for them. He made it clear, he is in it for the long haul.

[Sulawesi]

5. No Bad news for Clinton, Edwards is taking over her spot a #2, will only go after O when she is down

[Evergreen Emerald]

13. we know she will be in it for the long haul.

She has the money. She has the superdelegates. Edwards and Obama split the "not Clinton" vote.

[Sulawesi]

21. I disagree, the money can dry up and the superdelegates switch sides.

She has about a week to avoid being the next Muskie.

[Donnachaidh]

17. dream on

Clinton supporters still don't.GET.it.

She's the one who is OVER.

[Colobo]

3. That's all talk. He's got no $$$ to go for so long.

[MalloyLiberal]

7. All he needs is a suit and pants

[cali]

8. precisely. He's playing to his supporters

he's already spent a big chunk of what he can spend. He won't win a single primary, and if he comes in third in NH, NV and SC, as is likely,and gets trounced on Tsunami Tuesday, he'll drop out.

[Colobo]

10. Exactly.

[onehandle]

15. Kucinich went up to just before the convention in 2004.

I'm sending $100 every two weeks to Edwards.

If you can't tell by the posts, polls, and support here, I have a newsflash for you...

The majority of DUers are behind Edwards. So are the Netroots.


He'll be around up to the convention.

Where he'll win.

[Donnachaidh]

20. yeah -- Obama and his CORPORATE money

His supporters don't seem to care that he's going to sell THEM out so fast it will be frightening. His INSURANCE lobbyists, as well as his HEALTH lobbyists - are sharpening their knives to feast on Obama supporters.

But hey -- it's ALL about the Bling, ain't it? :sarcasm:

[Ninga]

4. Then we shall be right there with him!!! I have his back and will not leave his side.

:bounce:


:hi:



:bounce:

Edwardians are very special people. They are true patriots :patriot: they are filled with compassion, and believe that giving a helping hand is not a hand out, but a hand up. Just like John Edwards.


:hi:

[lisainmilo]

32. Ditto!

:kick:

[msongs]

6. that is good for America :-) nt

[HeraldSquare212]

9. So his cozy-up-to-Obama stategy may be backfiring

People are talking about things like, he made a deal with Obama, he's running for VP, etc. I don't think any of those are true, I think he's just trying to create a little 'winners circle' that includes just him and Obama. But by pushing it so blatantly he may be causing people to wonder what his intentions are. No one wants to back someone who is running for VP.

[Ninga]

12. What people? Where? Here on DU? Good try at framing ---NOT

[HeraldSquare212]

16. Why would he even be ased the question, then?

Just because of his poor poll numbers?

[MalloyLiberal]

14. No one believes he is running for VP

Except for some ignorant people on DU who don't understand the thugs like Carville will not allow that again.

[kurth]

25. Edwards not joining the Obama cult anytime soon

[ozone_man]

11. That's great news!

It's time for his populist, anticorporate interest message.

[Triana]

18. W00t! So I shall set up my monthly donation

'Cause I'm there right with him.

[FreeStateDemocrat]

24. Edwards knows the M$M ignoring him now will be reversed by his impressive debate appearances.

He is an excellent campaigner and with additional funding will be the winner in November.

[creeksneakers2]

19. Edwards continues to be a total jerk

Edwards is a dirty mudslinger. He won't stop trying to hurt the Democratic nominee even after he loses. Actually, he's already lost, and all he's fighting for is second. Perhaps VP is his angle. I think its just vanity.

[MalloyLiberal]

22. He's not mudslinging

Just telling the truth and it feels like hell

Stop with your crazy bias for your candidate

[creeksneakers2]

33. Please explain to me how

Hillary is a defender of the status quo. Which item of the status quo is she defending? What does she say that is a defense?

[MalloyLiberal]

34. She's just like George W Bush and her snippiness last night

Was like one of the debates between Kerry and Bush

[creeksneakers2]

35. That's the kind of answer I expect

Vague unsupported accusations based on nothing that have nothing to do with the issue asked about or the previous comments that led up to it. If this is just trading insults, its my turn.

John Edwards is like Bob Dole with his sleazy hatchet jobs.

26. The Obama crowd is becoming a cult

[progressforward]

28. Good. nt

[whatdoyouthink]

29. Go Edwards

Make them Fight for US - if tell there last dollar is spent at least!

Then maybe they will come to US - Instead of "Special Interest" Money - because once there Trough with them - they wont need them anymore (In General)

and then whomever? will be kissing are butt's for money (because they spend like drunken sailors - so far) 6 to 1 so far! and counting....

[sniffa]

30. Is he hitch hiking to Denver?

[MalloyLiberal]

31. If Gravel can, Edwards can.

[Phoebe Loosinhouse]

36. I heard him say this unequivocally - great! He will find money and converts

as time goes on. It's early days yet.

As a side benefit, maybe we won't have to wade through all those "When is Edwards Dropping Out?" posts.
