I don't think kerry is suppressing him I'm sure during their tour stops Edwards is coming out and getting the crowd going but I have yet to see him in the media anywhere what happened to this guy??

I will say on though I do like the fact that Kerry still continues to carry this campaign on his shoulders as it should be, that's a clear difference between him and *. Bush needs all his friends like Rove and Cheney to drum up some attention while Kerry can just go out there and deliver without looking to Edwards to get a crowd's attention but...I wanna see some more Edwards too man!!

3. He went back to Kansas
He is with Kerry. Press is giving bull shit coverage. Write the TV stations. And while your at it tell Tweedy he is a moron.

4. I thought Edwards was taking a few days off.
I am also glad though that Kerry is attracting big, enthusiastic crowds on his own.

2. Isn't Edwards taking a break right now?
I heard on CNN that he was relaxing in North Carolina.

5. He seems to be very much in the spotlight on the trail.
He's just not doing anything to make the headline news. Actually, that's a good thing. Think about what you've heard in the news lately...Chrubs gaffs, Kerry responding to shrub's question, and the media parsing it.

See now Bush is gonna run an ad saying that Edwards has been on vacation for 40% of the time he has served as Kerry's VP.

9. Interesting observation
He certainly hasn't made any appearance on any media I've seen as of late. As articulate as he is, I would think they would be throwing him a media soundbite or two, at least.


"Bush needs all his friends like Rove and Cheney to drum up some attention..." Not to mention pickles. Behind every great man is a woman who isn't a totally vacant mannequinn.

11. That's a good point
He's just going around stumping, so he's not exactly making national news. He's probably getting lots of local coverage wherever he goes, though.
