Don't know if this wil come through for you..."Comedy Central's Site" is kind of quirky...

But...I'm giving it a try because its such a funny thing about Edward's "self-deprecating sense of humor"..to watch it.

If it doesnn't come through just hit the "link BELOW for Edwards" and you will get it.

1. It's here on DU - and so are Hillary's and Obama's appearances.

They all did well and poked fun at themselves.

[Yael]

2. I want a jet ski. And to be a spy. And I want my face on money.

It was hilarious!!

[KoKo]

4. he was great.......I hope folks will watch it.......n/t

[Cabcere]

7. "I don't know if I ever mentioned this before, but my father was a mill worker."

And then all the balloons and confetti...hahahaha. :rofl: Excellent. :D

[WinkyDink]

11. "1,000,000th time!"

[Yael]

12. I had a debate flashback on that

"He said mill! DRINK!"

:rofl:

[Cabcere]

16. Hahaha

:rofl: :toast: Good times.

[Yael]

19. I do miss his voice in this race.

Huge. :(

[Cabcere]

21. I do, too.

:( He was my candidate all the way, and while I think both Clinton and Obama are smart people who have a lot to offer, I can't get really excited about either one. :shrug: Of course I will support whichever one gets the nomination, but...yeah. :hi: Peace.

3. he outshone the others imo n/t

[LSparkle]

5. A natural comedian ... He should have hosted "SNL" before dropping out

It would have boosted his poll numbers considerably!

His delivery is just so deadpan -- PERFECT!

[OzarkDem]

6. So funny, really good

Wonder who will get him the jet-ski?

[melody]

8. He's just amazingly funny in that

It really is one of the funniest comedy appearances by a political figure ever.

[WinkyDink]

9. It was AWESOME!

[rurallib]

10. I still love John - hope he plays a major role in the future.

[Writer]

13. That was one of the best bits I've seen on Colbert in a long time.

Edwards was a real natural!

[medeak]

14. MSNBC now saying Edwards had best appearance n/t

[KoKo]

15. That's good to hear....I had to turn off MSNBC...because Tweety was bloviating...but

I watched the whole Colbert thing...with Hillary, Obama, Michelle (which is a separate video on the site) and Edwards.

I never knew Edwards had such a great sense of humor. And, I know it was "scripted for him" but his DELIVERY was wayyyy cool.

[KoKo]

17. It's still a good watch on a Friday Night....n/t

[Secret_Society]

18. I miss John I hope...

that he is able to parlay his position into having an impact on the platform.

[spooky3]

22. welcome to DU, Secret_Society!

[OhioChick]

20. As a former Edwards supporter....

I wish him and his family all the best. I saw this.....he's got a damn good sense of humor. :)

[blogslut]

23. He did great

And his appearance did not seem forced or stiff. We really liked his bit the best and I too, am sad he is not still in the race. He changed the debate and for that, I will be forever grateful.

[chknltl]

24. So how much are 5 kawasaki 800 Jet-Ski's anyway?

Can we start a collection in the DU among Obama supporters?
