John Edwards for President Deputy Campaign Manager Jonathan Prince released the following statement today about the reopening of the campaign headquarters in Chapel Hill. Yesterday, the headquarters office was evacuated after receiving a letter with white powder.

"The test results of the white powdery substance received yesterday have come back negative, and the authorities have informed us that it is safe to return to the office.

"We want to thank the Chapel Hill police office and other authorities involved for their assistance. We look forward to returning to the office and focusing on our campaign to change America."

7. When Eddie gets my envelope it's going to be filled with cash.
Or a check, that is.

I have not made up my mind 100% yet- but right now my checks go to Eddie & Obama.

His stance on poverty and his stand against FOX news shows leadership- and I'm going to support that.

I hate these idiots who threaten with violence- Eddie aint scared of ya and neither am I!

15. There you go Edwards, an ideal opportunity ...
... to do something for the country and use THIS EVENT to find out
why nothing has ever happened about the anthrax attacks in 2001.

WHY did no-one follow up the delivery of US military anthrax to
civilians and Dem politicians?

WHY have none of the myriad US "intelligence" agencies done anything?

Come on John: this time it's personal.
