After the SC results, John Edwards will probably not win the nomination, but his clear voice on what we are fighting for will remain. Prior to the SC results, there was a great negativity to Barack Obama campaign in the local blogs. I would politely ask that you re-look at situation at hand: We have a candidate that has the ability to erase many of the bitter partisan lines that have separated us from our neighbors and family over the past 18 yrs. We have a candidate that can bring large amounts of independent voters and Bush voters over to vote for a Democrat. This would be a devastating blow to Rove's permanent majority plans. It gives us the ability to start talking about a new American majority. We have a candidate that will immediately diffuse some of the hatred aimed at our country caused by our current administration and it's deadly ineptness. We have a candidate that does not spin every single word that comes out of his mouth. We have a candidate that can win in November because of his broad appeal and because is not starting with 50% of the population against him from the start. We have a candidate that is inspiring a whole generation of young people and will save them from witnessing the ugly battles of the baby-boomers which we've been watching since 1992. As much as we admire the Clinton's intelligence and political skills, they cannot do any of the items above. In fact, I think that if Hillary wins the nomination and faces McCain, the Democrats will have blown another great chance to lead the country into a new direction. To throw this all away because of a subjective analysis of a lack of experience, will be an historic mistake. Obama has more legislative experience that Hillary Clinton and more public service experience than Abraham Lincoln when he ran for president. Thank you . . . Kevin B
