If Edwards promotes Hillary on Leno then
I'm a fool, for ever following this guy.

I'm pissed that he chose this venue to talk about
the shit that is facing this nation now,
he has said shit since he dropped out!!!!
He could have gotten a national news speech
to talk about something vs. LENO


Now after he dropped out
he choses Leno, to say something?


LENO? LENO? LENO?

1. If Edwards Does It
then it shows his whole candidacy was a sham. He fooled me, too.

6. I doubt it will have any impact if he does
I would venture to guess that most former Edwards supporters would have the same reaction you are having; they would feel hoodwinked by him, not inspired to follow him in supporting the HRC campaign.

8. It was said that he would appear on Leno
like soon from NBC on Leno.


As an X edwards supporter
that had to move on.
I await his answer which I haven't heard

Well, I've used one of my threads
I only have two left.

4. How do you know WHAT he is going to talk about? it is probably the new movement for peace and the
economy he and Elizabeth as well as Wes Clark and Move OBN and others are involved with. I don't think he is endorsing anyone on Leno.And BTW, more folks watch Leno so he will get MORE exposture than if he went on a news show!

5. Damn...
Calm down! Respect Edwards’ right to say what he wants and when and where he wants to say it. It would have been so easy for him to jump on the Obama bandwagon. He didn't and I respect that. Even if he endorses Obama, I will still respect him. The guy is clearly an independent thinker, something sorely lacking in both political parties.

11. Not dead..... but a superficial player
in the game.

I hope, I am wrong.


But the question is????

Why didn't he say shit to his supporters when he left?

10. Why not wait to hear what he actually has to say?
I'm tired of people saying they'll be upset with him without knowing what he's going to do.

13. The fifth year of this war started today
The economy is effecting the people he talked about
even more than when he was talking about it.

Listen, I need his fricking talk
for him to silent on this accelerating snowball
to hell is crap

Where the FUCK IS HIS RIGHTEOUS VOICE?

12. I agree with you
Of all places to announce something so important. His supporters are going to be looking for some type of explanation and going on Leno is not going to cut it.

14. Leno gets a bigger viewing audience than most cable news shows do I bet.
Perfect place to announce something that people will see.

Not me, of course, I haven't liked the show since Johnny left. x(

24. No kiddin. My opinions of Pelosi and Edwards have not changed.
If he endorses one or the other it makes no diff to me. Any Obama supporter who doesn't realize that Edwards purposely gave Obama the chance to win this nomination would have to be brain dead. So why would you get all bent out of shape if Edwards were to now decide to endorse Hillary? Edwards has already done far more POSITIVE things for Obama than he could ever do for Hillary at this point, simply by dropping out of the race when he did.

So don't poop on him if he decides to endorse Hillary. How the hell do you know it's gonna happen anyway? Chill out and see what happens first. Then if it does happen, keep in mind that Edwards basically gave Obama the chance to take this nomination, which he would otherwise not have had because the vote was split 3 ways and Clinton had the upper hand.

19. Wow, at least wait to get pissed off at him AFTER he does
Edited on Wed Mar-19-08 02:05 AM by Jamastiene
the appearance on the show. For all you know, he could be doing some promo for Habitat For Humanity or maybe he has even started his own organization to fight poverty. Don't get mad at him BEFORE he even speaks. Poor JE. Can't win for being shot down before he even has a chance to speak. :spank:

22. I predicted all along he would endorse her.
He knows a phony and an rookie when he sees one.

I guess Murtha wouldn't have a clue about foreign policy and who to put in executive control of it either :rofl:

23. it makes absolutely no sense
for him to endorse her this week, after 8 of his Iowa delegates went to Obama.

I'm not saying he won't, but what a mistake to not do it a week ago.
