It is with a heavy heart that I say goodbye to John Edwards' candidacy.
I certainly can't say I didn't see it coming, but I now have to forego the luxury of feeling excited about the candidate I support.
Up until the last minute I held out hope for an Al Gore candidacy, but I had to let that go. Kucinich, who best represents my values, was kicked to the curb as a viable candidate early on.
But Edwards' strength encouraged me.
He is the candidate that talked about the elephant in the living room - the corporatocracy which is driving us towards feudalism and has turned the middle class into the working poor and the working poor into the indigent.
He is a fighter who has taken on the big corporations and won.
As I have said before, he's not perfect;
but the perfect candidate for me could not get elected county dogcatcher –
our sorry electoral system makes sure of that.”
