To Edwards People from a Kucinich Person
I am so sorry to hear that your candidate has withdrawn. In all liklihood, I would have supported him at our caucus here next week.
I hope John Edwards stays involved in the party and continues to grow, as he has a lot to offer the party AND the country. This kind of news is always painful to absorb(believe me, I know).

But there has to be a way to learn from this and to find the way to win next time.

The Edwards campaign WAS worth fighting. I hope somehow in the future those of us from the media-silenced campaigns can come together
and represent those who will now have no voice.

Again, I hope you are doing as well as you can with the news.

4. thanks, a very gracious and considerate post.

I too hope John Edwards stays involved with the new administration. And Dennis Kucinich is one truly fine American! the best to you.

5. thanks
Very kind of you.

This is a real catastrophe. I wasn't too disappointed when Dennis dropped out (have been a long time supporter and volunteer for him) so long as Edwards was in the race. Now what?

I don't think the party wants us around. It is so ugly and mean-spirited and frustrating even when we have a candidate speaking for the forgotten people. Without that, what is left?

8. A lot of us have a lot of respect for your guy also, Ken Burch.
Kucinich and Edwards had a lot more in common than some folks tallied up.

For one thing, the media made a point to ignore them both.

Thanks for your classy post.
