I won't support Edwards any more.....

[BlackVelvet04]

me supporting a candidate, a football team, a NASCAR driver or even an American Idol candidate is the friggin' kiss of death.

I apologize to all Edwards supporters everywhere.

[fooj]

1. NGU. I won't stop fighting until he stops fighting.

No apologies necessary.

[aquart]

2. Tell me you're switching to Obama.

[BlackVelvet04]

6. Has hell frozen over? n/t

[avaistheone1]

54. Well that would be good for Edwards then

based upon what he is saying.

[eleny]

3. I thought it was me

I supported Kucinich until yesterday. Today, my heart was with Obama but I thought it would be best to caucus for Edwards come Feb. 5th. I like his health care plan so much.

This is way worse than being a thread killer!

[BlackVelvet04]

29. All I have to do is hit reply

to kill a thread.

[eleny]

36. !

:rofl: :patriot:

[BlackVelvet04]

39. :-)

I have to laugh so I don't cry.

[Kucinich4America]

49. You really sound like you would make an excellent Hillbot.

If what you say is true, you would be the best kind of Hillbot. :)

[BlackVelvet04]

60. she could use MY kind of "support" now, couldn't she?

:evilgrin:

[AndyA]

4. I know how you feel.

Who do you like the least? We'll head over there as a team, and watch their numbers drop like crazy!

:rofl:

Keep your chin up, we'll either somehow elect Edwards, or there'll be another 4-8 years of crap in the White House.

[BlackVelvet04]

14. Ok....

you and me, kiss of death, Obama. See you there!

God, it's really fucking depressing. A football team can be kicking ass and I start cheering for them and the quarterback fumbles, the kicker breaks his toe and the wide receiver passes out. What the hell is that all about?

[bigbrother05]

5. don't leave just yet

it's a while until the election, alot can happen

[glowing]

7. You are funny.. I understand.. but a lot of us voted for Al and look what we

got.. you are not bad luck.. We just have a really shitty country.. time to take it back..

[stravu9]

8. we are alike in that.

me too

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

9. Oh, I thought it was me.

I supported Gene McCarthy in 1968 and haven't picked a winner yet.

[BlackVelvet04]

17. Nixon vs. McGovern

guess who I voted for?

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

19. Me, too.

[BlackVelvet04]

24. I was young, fresh faced, bright eyed and

bushy tailed and BAMMMMMMMM. I mean no kid should have their candidate lose to NIXON!!!! I should have known then to stay far, far away from politics.

[Kucinich4America]

56. If you voted for Nixon

You wouldn't be very popular around here :evilgrin:

[BlackVelvet04]

59. Yeah, there is that part of it.....

but does my candidate ALWAYS have to be the underdog?

waaaaaaaaaah

[Hardrada]

33. Stevenson in 1952 & 1956

How's that?

[BlackVelvet04]

34. Sweet Jesus....

it really IS you and not me.

;)

I wasn't born yet when you started your streak.

[Hardrada]

37. I was too young to vote for Adlai but I campaigned as best

I could and was disappointed like the adults. I couldn't vote for JFK either actually.

[BlackVelvet04]

38. I joke a lot .....

but it really is disappointing to believe so much in a candidate that just can't get traction.

Well, this isn't our first rodeo and we will continue on.

[Hardrada]

63. And then look what becomes of our candidates

who actually DO get elected. Killed, forced to resign, discarded, impeached by a hostile partisan Congress and marginalized.

[bdamomma]

10. I won't kicked John to the curb yet, he has a long way to go.

hopefully the american voters will wake up.

[shadowknows69]

11. I hear that lol

My Giants are in the fricken Super Bowl and I'm too afraid to watch.

[BlackVelvet04]

31. They don't even let my team watch the Super Bowl....

;)

[DJ13]

12. "me supporting a candidate........is the friggin' kiss of death"

Hillary could use your support!

:evilgrin:

[cboy4]

13. LOL. I know how you feel....Don't quit yet. n/t

[Inspired]

15. And I thought it was because of me!

I thought it was because I drove a different route to the store today. Or because I changed my shampoo today.

I hate my superstitions!

[BlackVelvet04]

26. All I had to do is wake up.

You have to work harder. ;)

[wundermaus]

16. Damn...

Now I will have to write Edwards name on the ballot.
Like hell I'm going to back down.
John, The Corporatists truly hate you.
So you are my candidate for President.
Everything else is just marketing.

[Maximus Invictus]

18. Brokered convention = Al Gore/ Edwards

Brokered convention = Al Gore/ Edwards

BYE BYE OBAMA REAGAN CORPORATIST. BYE BYE HILLARY CORPORATIST!

I really don´t like Hillary, but after Edwards, she´s the only one that can win old guy like McCain.

In the worst administration of the United States, the republicans with old dog like McCain have a chance of winning one more time the presidency. Unbelievable!

Democrats always follow what the RIGHT WING MEDIA wants. They all are happy if the OBAMA is the nominee. They are all laughing at you.

It´s unbelievable how you did treat one of the best presidents in the history of the USA. Yes, Bill Clinton. As i much i don´t like Hillary, i cannot agree with the bashing on Bill. In the other hand we see a guy that praise Reagan and humiliate Bill. Well Reagan must be for must of you like a roll model. Oh my god.

One thing is the hate you have to Hillary, other thing is forgetting what Bill Clinton did for your country and the world. I´m really very disappointed with some people.


I hope Edwards go to the convention, and Al Gore be the nominee to unite the party, and give the VP to Big John Edwards.

Go John! Go Go! Edwards you´re the best!

Don´t forget that i never failed who would win the GE since 1980. It´s little bit of history repeating! Will see!


Sorry for my bad english.

I´ll donate from here some more money to the Edwards campaign. I want him in the convention, because i think is the only one that can turn around this anti-americanism that i never seen in Europe for 50 years.


From Europe with love...

[bigbrother05]

28. go to the Edwards site to donate, they match the funds

Where in europe are you, We were in Germany 5 years, and came home to America last year, and I hate it, miss the german culture.

[Hardrada]

35. We are going back to Berlin this summer for a visit.

Loved the European citiest where you could walk all around at night and not be murdered.

[bvar22]

20. I know how you feel.

I owe Bret Favre and Dale Jr. a BIG apology.

And I thought it was just me. :shrug:

[BlackVelvet04]

22. Poor Dale, Jr....

TWO OF US?????

[Lugnut]

51. Awwww...

Dale Jr is going to be fine. John Edwards will be too. Ya gotta believe. :hug:

[BlackVelvet04]

58. I felt so bad for Dale, Jr.....

he had to contend with the witchola AND had me cheering for him.

[Lugnut]

61. Witchola?

:rofl: That's one nickname I haven't heard. I'll always be a fan of his dad's. I think Jr will be in Victory Lane a few times this season and I'll be cheering for him.

[BlackVelvet04]

62. I just made that up.....

you can use it if you want. ;-)

My big tough husband cried the day Dale, Sr. was killed. It was a terrible day for racing.

[LizW]

21. Me, too!

Gore, Dean, and now Edwards.

I can watch one episode of a new tv show and get it canceled.

The University of Alabama football team has not won a game with me present since the 80's. (No, I don't even think about going to any of the big games.)

Sigh.

[BlackVelvet04]

23. The Redskins banned me from their games......

well not really but they should.

[SammyWinstonJack]

25. Wow! So easily swayed? Apologize to yourself, not us loyal Edwards supporters.

Have a nice life!

[BlackVelvet04]

27. I guess you don't get tongue in cheek stuff, do you? n/t

[SammyWinstonJack]

30. My bad?

:shrug:

[BlackVelvet04]

32. Sorry....

I deal with extreme disappointment with my personal brand of warped humor. Forgive please.

Although, sometimes it really does feel like I'm the kiss of death.

[bklyncowgirl]

40. I understand your feelings, I got behind Richardson this year--Hell, I made Secretariat lose.

Some of us are the kiss of death to candidates. Mine in the past have been Gary Hart, Jerry Brown, Bill Bradley, Jesse Jackson--you get the picture.

Hell, I bet on Secretariat when he lost to those racing immortals Prove Out and Onion. Some people said he was sick, others said that Prove Out and Onion's trainer, Allen (the Giant Killer) Jerkens had figured out that if he had his jockey slow the pace enough the big horse would get bored and fail to fire. Forget it, I know it was those $2.00 bets.

The one time I bet on a horse that I was a fan of that actually came in was $20 put on the nose of the immortal John Henry ridden in his last race by the great Bill Shoemaker. Much to my, and everyone else's delight, John Henry came in by four lengths.

As I raced to the window, I looked at the tickets and realized that my boyfriend had put my $20 on the wrong horse.

[BlackVelvet04]

42. Bless your heart.....

that really sucks! It's a good think I don't gamble I guess.

I will say that I supported Chris Daughtry who lost American Idol one year and he has become quite a star in spite of losing. I comfort myself with that thought. ;)

[bklyncowgirl]

47. We're ahead of the crowd, that's the way I think of it.

Of course the race horse thing is just freaky--that's OK--now I keep my money in my wallet and just enjoy the race.

[lisainmilo]

46. Jesse Jackson ....

My first vote I ever cast......that was awhile ago!

[jules1962]

41. I know how you feel

I have this to say to you. Robby Gordon, Tennessee Titans,Chris Daughtry, and John Edwards. I feel unlucky sometimes, but I will remain a loyal supporter of all forever.

Julie Powers

[BlackVelvet04]

43. Funny you brought up Daughtry....

I just mentioned him. At least he's selling CD's in spite of our support. Robby Gordon...NASCAR, right? Poor Dale, Jr. started losing as soon as I started supporting him.

[Lugnut]

53. Oh wow!

It's so thrilling to see another Robby Gordon fan around here! Welcome to DU!

[pauldg0]

44. Your a plant..............

..........I certainly will not give up on Edwards. He is going all the way to the conventions to win.

[BlackVelvet04]

48. What, a ficus tree, orchid, rose among thorns?

You don't get tongue in cheek either, do you?

[zalinda]

45. Also thread killer here

I've had bad luck all my life. Married a guy who was going to inherit wealth, he divorced me and our kid a few years before his parents died. Now he's rich and we're living in an inner city house. Yup, life can suck.

But, the good news is...........John Edwards came into our lives. At least one candidate speaks for us. I am hoping every day that Rezko and Bill's flings torpedo their run. Is that wrong? Am I bad for wanting someone so much to speak for the poor and invisible?

Damn, damn, damn all of us losers for supporting a guy who thinks we're more than that.

Go John!

zalinda

[BlackVelvet04]

50. I'm replying to you if for no other reason

than to keep you from being the last post which would reinforce you thinking you are a thread killer.

Sorry to hear about your bad luck.

Is that wrong?

If it is I don't want to be right. ;-)

[Critters2]

52. You can secretly support him.

Just vote for him, but be quiet about it. No one needs to know :)

[Seabiscuit]

55. Aww BlackVelvet04 ... perhaps you can support in secret?

No worries! :toast:

[BlackVelvet04]

57. mycritters2 and Seabiscuit.....

great idea. I'll say I'm not but secretly I will.

"I will not vote for that man" wink wink
