You owe me nothing and
Edited on Wed Jan-30-08 07:25 PM by cali
I owe you nothing- at least regarding choosing a candidate.

I chose a candidate to support based on a number of factors. I did not demand that his supporters here justify him to me. It never even occurred to me to do so. I did my own research and checked my own gut.

I don't demand that you support my candidate. I don't demand that others justify their support of their candidate.

Don't want to vote for Obama? Fine. I'm not asking that you do. But by the same token don't demand why I- or others- support a candidate. Do your own homework, check your own gut. Make your own decision. There's a shitload of information out there. It's easy to find.

If you have a specific question about Obama, I'm happy to try and answer, but if you're just looking for a backhanded way to bash him, or you can't be bothered to do your own research, I'm not interested.

1. You sound so COLD.
No warmth in your statments for Obama. As an Edwards supporter, if he doesn`t endorse, neither will I.

2. You're not voting for Cali. And our candidate is out of the race. Don't depend on
ANYONE at this place to tell you what to do and don't wait for Edwards. It's your vote, not his.

5. As an Obama supporter...
then dont. If Edwards makes up your mind... sobeit. If you need John to tell you who to support now... then I guess you can welcome President McCain.

Your future is in your own hands. Chose a Democrat or enable a republican. Im sure JRE would be psyched to know that if he doesnt endorse anyone, you wont wont vote for either one. Come ON. :eyes:
