So who is going to vote for Edwards now?
I started out as a Dean supporter and still am, but after the number the media did on him it looked like he didnt stand a chance at getting the nomination, so far this has held true.

I then decided well if Dean wont be able to do it well Wes Clark still sounds pretty good, but now the media did thier number on him by ignoring him.

Now it looks like if I dont want Kerry to be our nominee I'll have to vote Edwards.

I definately dont feel like being a ship jumper, especially so many times and I didnt really think Edwards was all that good, but overall I think he would still be a better nominee than Kerry.

If when the primaries come to my state and if it is still a good race between Kerry and Edwards I'll be voting for Edwards. If unfortunately Kerry already has the nomination wrapped up by then then I'll be voting for Dean just to make a message.

1. Remember, every vote counts for delegates in primaries. If Edwards is
losing in your state, but there's still a mathmatical possiblity he can win, you should vote for Edwards.

If some bombshell dropped on Kerry after your primary, you'd still want other states to have a chance to vote in Edwards as the nominee.

2. Yes, Clark was my man also, and
on March 9 I'll vote for John Edwards (if he is still in the race).

I like John Kerry a lot and will work for, contribute to, and vote for him in November.

And vote for him in the Texas primary if Edwards has withdrawn.

5. Welcome aboard TexasMexican!
Should you feel like getting involved with the campaign on the local level, you should visit:

We are all very excited about the March 9th primary which could be a very important day (with Texas, Louisiana, Mississippi, and Florida), and we have less than a month to prepare.

Remember though, a month can be an eternity in "political time"...just imagine where John Kerry was on January 11th. Now imagine where Edwards could be a month from today!

8. I've been lucky, an Edwards guy from the start
I tend to agree that Edwards would be more viable and an better choice than Senator Kerry.

You see the sh... feces storm thats already being brewed around the front runner.
