What really bugs me the most

I have watched John Edwards run the type of campaign I'd like all candidates to have to run but in doing so he's highlighted the problems we face in getting others to do it to. John Has not taken big money in his campaign. He's said no to the big money lobbyists on capital hill and ran his campaign on matching funds, the way all campaigns should be run but at the risk of not getting his message out.
This is sad. I bristle when I here this or that candidate has X amount of money and that should get them elected. This is a sad indictment of or election process, as if it needed help. I see a man like John Edwards, on the stump day in day out, and still they don't give him a chance that tells me somethings wrong. He has the clearest message and the biggest contrast of any of the candidates. He is a true liberal in the mold of FDR, he sees what the problem is and has a plan to fix it.
Another is this sudden attitude by the Clinton camp that the "Boys are Picking on Hillary". I'm sorry but the President is a gender neutral position. If you want the office you've got to step up to the plate, there will be far more heat applied once in office and if this is intimidating then she doesn't need to be running for the office. John has had some pointed questions but questions that need to be answered, and he has every right to bring them up. I respected and defended Bill Clinton but of late I'm seeing things that I just don't like from either of them. John is far more forthcoming and honest about what he will do in office and I trust the guy.
I do think things are happening. With the revelations that Hillary planted questions, the field is starting to bunch up. I truly believe that once the smoke clears John will triumph in Iowa and New Hampshire.

Isn't it strange

Isn't it strange that now you can't find a hint of this story or the new poll that shows Clinton slipping? Isn't that strange.

and Bill Clinton meets with his ex-detractor and Head of the Right wing conspiracy this doesn't smell right to me...

and considering that the MSM and everyone else have been pushing Hillary down our throats for so long...

Edwards To Be Endorsed By Key Iowa Group

The Senators star is rising. He has the fight and determination to win and I believe he will.
Go John Go!

Exclusive: Edwards To Be Endorsed By Key Iowa Group
By Greg Sargent - November 8, 2007, 5:58PM
I've just learned from several sources that John Edwards will be endorsed by the fiscal group Iowans for Sensible Priorities, a very good get for Edwards in the key early-primary state.
A source on a rival campaign confirmed that the group decided to endorse Edwards; the decision will officially be announced tomorrow morning. The endorsement is a key one because it could potentially deliver a large block of thousands of caucus goers to Edwards.
Peggy Huptert, the head of the group, refused to confirm or deny whether the group had decided to back Edwards. But she did agree to discuss the general importance of the endorsement with Election Central.
"We have 10,000 Iowans who have taken a pledge saying they will vote in the caucuses and only support a candidate who supports shifting 15% of wasteful Pentagon spending into other priorities," Ms. Huptert said, describing her group's litmus test issue. I was unable to immediately confirm whether Edwards had in fact made this pledge.
Ms. Huptert added that all the main candidates had submitted questionaires to the group in search of its support. She noted that the winner of the group's endorsement (who she declined to confirm) would in effect get the support of all these members in one fell swoop. But others in Presidential politics pointed out that this is the first time the group is endorsing in this manner, so its ability to move votes remains untested. We won't know the full significance of Edwards' get until the votes are cast.
Still, the Edwards campaign -- which also declined to confirm the group's decision -- are already announcing a mystery event for tomorrow and are already looking to build excitement around it. The campaign already has an advisory out promising an "Important Campaign Announcement" for tomorrow in Des Moines.
