For Edwards supporters who now support Obama only: what would you say?
I know someone who knows someone who is/was an Edwards supporter and is not sure whether to vote for Obama in Missouri this Tuesday or not. What would you say?

2. I would say that I have decided to back Obama.
And I would let them know why.
For me, it would be his positive message, his electablility,
the involvement of young people he has inspired.
I think he could bring more Dems with him into congress.

Just some thoughts...:-)

3. Let me say I support Edwards's message in spirit as an Obama supporter
I will do all I can to keep the Edwards message within the Obama message.

4. a protest vote is welcome, if it yeilds deligates, but
if we unify behind Obama it is hard to see a down side,
the party grows,
and
if he can deliver the youth vote, as he has done twice now
then
even if we lose a close one (general election)

the future is ours for a generation

further more
if the youths out vote the racists, repukes, etc.

then the future is NOW

Hillery is a rehash of bad news and bad times
brace for white water and travel gate (among others) bumper to bumper
for months or years on end
