8. There's a nice thread about Hillary's statement

in GD, with lots of nice responses.

17. Thanks for pointing that out.

A most unexpected response considering the disparity in the way candidates are treated around here.

6. They just played it on MSNBC...unfortunately, it was followed by Alex Witless

asking John Fucker Fund if this cancer could set up a catfight between Hill and Elizabeth? (It wasn't precisely that wording, but the intent was clear.)

I found myself in the hideously difficult position of AGREEING with Fund, who said that voters don't generally vote for spouses.

UGH. I HATE the MEDIA COVERAGE of this shit. It's just OFFENSIVE!!!!!!!!

19. Biden and Dodd

...Had text statements/press releases like Kucinich. Gravel was the only one who didn't have any statement up when I looked last night.

It's good to see that the Dems can pull together when it's warranted.

9. I agree.....

No one is interested if it's not a trasher......


Thanks William, I was about to post the pic & comment from Senator Clinton's site.




& To John & Elizabeth Edwards, I feel so bad for her. This is a cancer survivor's worst nightmare. She's much braver than me.





It can always show up somewhere ......no matter how long it's been.

10. This is one of those moments, ya know?

The type of moment where you put down the poll numbers, forget the campaign trail, and just reflect for an instant. These candidates are all like high school friends on the opposite football team. If one gets hurt, they want to know how they can help.

Hillary is a very classy lady. And it says a lot that she allows her campaign to post another candidates picture as her main image on her website. It just shows this is beyond politics, and everyone wishes the Edwards the best!! It shows the human side of this campaign. God speed John and Elizabeth!!

[Tellurian]

11. Thanks for expressing my thoughts exactly..

and all of us wishing John and Elizabeth- the very best!

[Forkboy]

13. I'll agree with that

Whatever disagreements some of us have really don't matter in the face of this stuff.

I wish her the best.

[ruggerson]

12. What a corporatist, Republican response!

How many focus groups did it take her to come up with that one? Fraudulent bitch. **
