In Rural America Edwards is resonating!!!!!! Two more Edwards supporters...voted bush last time
brother and sis-in-law came to watch the Chiefs game...well the Chiefs were sucking so we started talking politics. They almost voted for Kerry last time around but voted bush because of the abortion issue.

That was AFTER they saw F9/11 and were very angry.

this time around they are good and pissed...


NO way are they voting for any republican...but...had questions on what candidate was good.


we are from a rural town and Edwards One America message resonates with all of us and this time it doesn't matter WHO is for or against abortion

I talked with them that voting for one issue never works in your favor because of all the other issues.

the kicker???

when I showed them how bush and the rw corruption group cut WIC....they use it...

then I played the UTube of Edwards on Real Time with Bill Mahar.

they are firmly in the EDWARDS camp


I think many people will be

By the way, how did you come by your name? Do you by any chance live in Greenbriar TN? I was just wondering since I live just a few miles from there.

4. I've noticed a lot of former GOP'ers in Edwards' camp...
...and it does make me wonder, do you think some of them might be completely disenchanted with Republicans, but could never bring themselves to vote for a woman or a black man?

Just wondering.

8. That is one ticket that would get me to go back out on the streets and work for the dem party.
After what Kerry did (not counting the votes we worked so hard to get) I swore I wouldn't do it again.
