Edwards endorses obama

2

As if the writing weren’t already on the wall (no, not Hillary dropping out), Sen. John Edwards today endorsed Sen. Barack Obama as the Democratic nominee for President. He made his announcement at an Obama rally in Grand Rapids, Michigan in a speech that comes a day after Sen. Clinton won the West Virginia primary.

As a former cadidate in this race (yes, it’s still the same one) who’s suporters were mainly white, working-class voters, Edwards’ endorsement is thought to help bolster Obama’s appeal in this voting block, where he’s lost consistently to Clinton. Unfortunately for her, she’s lost a lot more.

    Edwards has always been disengenuous and weak …
    What a hypocrite … does he actually expect us to believe his commitment to poverty, when in reality he flaunts his huge multi-kazillion dollar compound (house) directly across the street from poor people … not to mention his $400 hair cuts, which could feed a family of four for four weeks! Then he waits till Obama is way in the lead, before endorsing him. What weak character … or, rather lack of character. I doubt his endorsement has any value … and, anybody who values his endorsement, doesn’t have any values.
