The first time I ever saw Barack Obama in an interview, I wished that he would someday run for president; and since then I have always supported him.
But after listening to some of John Edwards debates, I am REALLY starting to lean towards his views. I believe in everything he's talking about from education, to healthcare, and the war in Iraq...if he isn't too good to be true, he definitely stole my vote!

Edwards is absolutely THE biggest phoney in the entire presidential race! I cannot understand how any can take this guy seriously. He comes off a million miles away from being sincere with every breath that he musters.
He exploited the poor with his poverty tour. Oh, its all the government's fault those people are in poverty. Maybe if he talked to them about the importance of getting a good education, staying away from addictions, etc. instead of preaching that its the government's responsibility to get those people out of poverty, something he claims he can do, but ultimately is impossible--then maybe he might do some good to help the poverty situation in our country. Those people are fooled into thinking---wow, this guy cares about US!!!! Yeah right! Edwards cares about ONLY getting their votes.
Why do I say that? Well, from the time he ran for vice president until now, he has not been working towards helping the poor get out of poverty, but has been working for a hedge fund. Yep, good ol' Edwarsd has been working to make already rich people---richer!
The man is SCARY!!! Even Kerry regretted making him his running mate.
Edwards built a fortune on putting people OUT of business and destroying jobs by trying frivilous lawsuits, unlike Romney who has built a fortune on helping to create MILLIONS of jobs with Bains Capital.
If Edwards becomes president, and there's no way he will---thank God---you can literally kiss this country good-bye.

Edwards and Hunter chose to have an affair with each other, so BOTH of them should be equally responsible for their actions. Hunter's life doesn't seem ruined. She isn't sorry for what she did with Edwards. She doesn't seem to be ashamed of her action and she doesn't even seem to have a bit of remorse for Elizabeth who's suffering from cancer and going through the treatment. Hunter is no different than Ashley Dupre, Monica Lewinsky, and all the other women the politicians have an affair with.

Well, I guess I'd vote for him before a used car salesman, but that's about it. Ambulance chasers are probably number two on my Slimiest Professions list.

Let's see, he preaches global warming, but lives in a 10,000 square foot house, and drives SUV's and has a private jet(just like Gore). He get's 400$$ haircuts, and won't go anywhere without a mirror. He's about as quick witted as a slug, just listen to him get stumped on questions he's unprepared for.
And, he's a lawyer. We need to get rid of the lawyers, they're mucking up our country.

Edwards is good and I hope the nominee, however the right wing media is focused on Hillary.
They figure that she is beatable. They are afraid of Edwards.

Nah, that four hundred dollar haircut did it for me. The guy has no sense of fiscal responsibility whatsoever. He hasn't stolen my vote, and I don't want him stealing anything else from me either.
