31. I'd vote for you over Edwards for your hair and outfit alone!
BTW, do you make tie-dyed onesies for babies? Do you have an online store? Hubby and I thought we should buy our daughter one.

She already has a Keith Olbermann Estrogen Brigade (KOEB) onesie:

10. yes, I sent him another $25.
Odd, he's the only candidate I've given to this round and he's not my top pick. I think its because my top pick (Obama) doesn't need my money and I do love Edwards' message.

I remember in 2004 I really wanted Kerry to pick Edwards. By then he had really grown on me.

If you get a chance, read his book. It's very good.

11. Way to go Edwards!
When was this posted? What a great video response. You know if the worst thing anyone can say about Edwards is he spent too much money on his hair you know he is a good man. Do you know how much Hillary spent on hers?
"Recently released federal fund-raising records show Clinton shelled out $1,500 in April for Goetz to carefully craft her coiffure and another $1,000 for a camera-ready clip in May." John Edwards makes it very clear we need to focus on what really matters!!

12. Any Cowsills fans?
Although that wasn't the version he played, just sayin', Palm Beach area DUers, Cowsills are playing there (Lyric theater) July 28th, you should go! They're really good, HONEST!

LOVED JOHN EDWARDS IN THE DEBATE!

13. That was one of the more brilliant campaign ads I've seen
It manages to not only carry a powerful message, but also to really embarrass his critics by showing just how juvenile they are. He really socks it to the pundits without looking like he is attacking anyone. Candidates need to learn from this.

33. It was a big middle finger to the media. Bet it gets very little free play.
Edited on Tue Jul-24-07 10:09 AM by mnhtnbb
It has been viewed more than 24,000 times on youtube.

25. Brilliant!
My mother always taught me the easiest way to defeat a bully is with humor. Sounds like the Edwards' crew had some wise moms as well.
