Someone posted a good question to you on here--why can't he win North Carolina?
Well I'll answer that. He forgot that a senator is suppose to represent the people. Can't imagine what he'll do if chosen to represent the country. When he was elected, he went up there and had the absolute worst record of any senator ever. He didn't show up. Remember people--these guys only work about 100 days out of the year to begin with. Look up how many days Edwards showed up for votes. Less than 10. It's either 5-7, I can't quite remember. On the other votes, he must have been too busy. Hope he won't be too busy if he is elected President.
The facts are: Edwards was elected to serve NC. He didn't. He quit. He immediately started making great ads about he is a small town boy from a cute lil mill town. Neglecting to mention that when that small mill town helped elect him to Senate, he quit on them.
The facts: everyone in the democratic nominations for president have more experience than he does. They have proven track records that can be debated b/c they voted on issues. whether you like the vote or didn't, at least they took a stance. edwards perfers to have no stance on anything.
He didn't even take a stance on the bloggers. He doesn't address his dismal record. He didn't take a stance on any vote in Congress. Why would he want to participate in a debate? He wants to get up there, look pretty and have a script he reads that says something like "I hate the war. vote for me" and never have to address Social Security, healthcare, gas prices, or any other issue troubling Americans.
He'll take part in a debate when he finds one that won't mention his record and allows him just to ignore the questions. He thinks that Americans will ignore all that and vote for the guy with the best hair.

the certainty that the mainstream media sat in this tale, and that the nationwide Enquirer scooped them on it, shows how plenty indoors the tank they're for Obama, Edwards, and various Democrats. an same element has have been given right here approximately to Larry Sinclair. The mainstream media is sitting in this tale as surprising. optimistically people will initiate up complaining and grant up allowing the MSM to supress the certainty to cover the asses of their chosen applicants. it is somewhat unseemly. optimistically right now the MSM will rigidity Obama to regular his little gay intercourse and cocaine escapade with Sinclair lower back in 1999.

He's not refusing to debate. He's simply boycotting Fox News. Fox News frequently uses Ann Coulter as a paid political commentator. I don't blame him for not wanting to appear on a station that justifies her behavior.

Because Edwards knows that Fox News won't throw him sofballs like the mainstream liberal news media will. He's afraid to answer the tough questions because he's an empty suit and he shifts positions more often than Kerry. He's a wimp and an empty suit. Harry Reid is even worse. Another Democrat flip-flopper.

Its not fear, more and more Democrats are boycotting the Fox (so-called) News network. More Americans should do the same.

He is NOT afraid. He is the first politician who is calling Fox News out on what it really is...a mouthpiece for the Republican party. I applaud Edwards!

Edwards is the only half-way decent democratic candidate.

He needs to stand firm in his convictions and take on all debates in my opinion.
