Those who are calling for Edwards to drop out and endorse whoever.
I say to you - SHUT THE HELL UP! It's not over. Two states, irrelevant representation. Off to South Carolina and the REAL blue collar states - where Edwards will pick up a major number of delegates, more than Obama, more than Hillary!

First in nation - last that *truly* cares.

22. I take polling with a GRAIN of salt.
The grassroots will determine the real winner.

4. Ditto.. I'm sick of it. He has a right to be in this race. I don't hear anyone
calling for Richardson or Kucinich to drop out. Direct anger toward your main competition.. Hillary and her dirty tricks and her smears and her tears. Edwards did nothing but run a good, clean race and talk about issues. So yeah, STHU.

5. Agreed!!
Edwards is a good man and he has some strong support. He is good for the party and good for the race. His voice needs to be heard.

This thing is just getting started.

14. If that were the case then the Democratic party is finished
because Edwards is the ONLY Dem candidate who could win the general election. Mark my words, if Hillary or Obama are the nominee, it's four or eight more years of Republican rule.

15. If Edwards wants to stay he should stop the negative attacks
So should the others too.

18. i agree
as soon as Biden dropped, i began liking Obama... However, after watching Edwards speak tonight in NH, i will be voting for John Edwards regardless on Feb 5 New Jersey primary. He was originally my favorite going back to last year, along with Biden.

I will vote for him Feb 5th NJ.

21. Absolutely! As the contest narrows to three now, John can have more room.
I'm for Obama, but John has no reason to be pushed into dropping out.

As the field narrows, John will have more room to showcase himself now.

I want them all to stay until convention. Let the states decide. ALL the states.

24.  I think Edwards should do whatever he wants to do
but it's delusional to think he's going to win or even come in second in any upcoming state contests. He's simply not viable.

26. "Not viable"
Translation: he's not at the top of enough of those bar graphs that show who took money from which industries.

27. It depends on how long his campaign funds last, probably. They always say..
they're in for the long haul. Otherwise, no one would vote for 'em.

But he didn't get that much campaign $$$ to last through Super Tuesday, did he? I mean, Clinton got lots more, and if she doesn't get new money, she'll have trouble going thru Super Tuesday.
