John Edwards quits the race

    All class, true.

    But Edwards is still a force to be reckoned with. Because he's still on the ballot in the Super Tuesday states, he'll pick up even more delegates, and his delegates can be the difference in the race between Clinton and Obama. I'm sure Clinton is ready to tell Edwards what a great guy he is, too.

    Way too late for that. Edwards will eventually endorse Obama rather than the DLC candidate.

    The wrong person saying all the right things. I might be a pinko, but I would have been skeeved bigtime over President Foof.
     
  4. Sorry you feel that way.

    I know he's your man, Mr. Bastard. And after Chris Dodd, he was probably my closest match, politically, so I understand why he's your man. But my three days with him were probably the worst of my professional life.

    A foof with a great wife and a collection of scummy, scummy people around him. Those were my findings.

    John Edwards could very well end up being a Supreme Court justice, well at least that's my hope.
    And I had a bad personal experience with the Edwards campaign, so I'm not the hugest fan, but I always thought he was a decent guy. Just a damn shame his campaign handlers sucked major ass.

    Just a note to add, I have heard that Edwards' top-level aides can be very crappy for the press to deal with, but his field folks are, for the most part, the salt of the earth.
     

  8. My own experience with him differs greatly.
    Selah.
     
  9. Shit. Edwards is done.
    Can I vote for Jed Bartlet?

    I guess Pancamo's saying Elizabeth Edwards, who has terminal cancer, is fat.

    There was a tabloid story for a day or so about how Edwards was supposed to be the father of the child of an aide of his who got pregnant. It was a reall piss-poor story and quickly fell off the map.

    Are you nuts? It's not a joke. Not everyone with a law degree (or without) should be a SC Justice. That was the problem with Harriet Meirs. There are liberals who are real scholars in the field, don't trivialize the position by giving it out to a guy becuase you like his 2 speeches.
