3. Thank you, Rocky. I want you to know that reading your post aloud
to my husband made me cry. I had held it back until I read that you were typing through tears. Then, the dam broke.

My husband says to tell you if you are ever at the corner of 10th & R, he would love to buy you a pint.

We both fully intend to vote for Edwards on Tuesday. There really IS no other choice for us.

Thank you so much for all you've done. I wish we could have done more.

4. Rock
As I responded privately, I've already sent in my primary ballot with JE's name selected. And since I have to live with my conscience, I'll write his name on the GE ballot as well. I feel your pain, Rock. I really do. While I've pulled for the Demo candidates over the past two decades, I was never so involved or passionate about any of them as much as I am about Edwards. While we of this little group may have lost our rudder, we still have each other and maybe THAT'S as good as anything shy of Edwards walking Pennsy avenue.
The wife 'n me are comfortable in our very modest little home and we'll sleep pretty much like we did last night. What worries me is the likes of Bobbolink and the others of her strata. Who will speak for them now?
I read where John stopped to visit with a couple hundred folks living under a bridge in Louisiana. I just don't see Obama or Ms. Clinton taking notice other than for sound byte rhetoric. I'd like to do something, but I feel as tho my shoes are made of lead and clumped with clay. I was gonna contribute another hundred bucks to John's efforts but now I think I'll just buy food for the empty-shelved local food bank. It's amazing that here in the salad bowl / fruit basket of America - there's folks going without food! We can pour on the handouts to foreign nations and let our own scrounge thru dumpsters. I can see a political cartoon lurking there somehow. The only thing is - it isn't even remotely funny.

6. Kicking because I want you all to know, you're not alone.
