Ah, my early choice endorsing Senator Obama (2.00 / 1)

I expected it - it's good. The hair care lobbyists will follow shortly ^_^.

He followed most of his supporters (none / 0)

it appears. I hope he focuses on his new anti-poverty project half in 10.

Student Guy=JoeMentum. No really Student Guy=JoeMentum, after all JoeMentum was an embarrassment so is Student Guy. This sig is FAIL!!

funny timing (2.00 / 1)

Maybe Edwards can help Obama understand how to connect with working people.

Re: funny timing (2.00 / 1)

Because Obama's supporters don't work?

If you mean blue-collar whites, then yes, Edwards will help. Note that Edwards got 7% of the vote in West Virginia.

Re: funny timing (none / 0)

I always forget that black voters aren't "working people." Thanks for the reminder.

Look, I get what you mean -- but ya'll really shouldn't be so glib about describing Obama's coalition. It has weaknesses, but he's hardly ahead based purely upon the votes of latte & wine drinking "liberals" (like me).

Why do losers keep endorsing (none / 0)

Obama: Kerry/Edwards - 2004, Ted Kennedy lost Dem. Nom. to Carter, Carter lost to Reagan, McGovern lost. Brazile lost Gore's election/campaign. It's disconcerting! Also, perhaps Edwards agrees with Obama's anti-gay position. Hmmm? Just wondering.

Obama's "anti-gay" position? (none / 0)

I know it's not good news for you, but still.

John McCain supports privatizing Social Security.
