    What is Edwards Waiting For?

    We all saw him on Colbert, joking that he was the most "sought-after white male" in the Democratic contest.  We saw him joking that he wanted to be bribed with a Jet Ski.  Ha!  Ha!  So funny!

    OK, John, why are you holding out?  It certainly isn't for the people who get sucked into the military as a way out of poverty.  Is it for people who don't have any hope of affordable Health Insurance?  Surely you know who comes closest to your goals for this.  So why wait?  

     Is it for power?  Is it so you can claim to have had a say in this process? 

    I don't know why you are keeping silent, but I will tell you this:  I am a 60 year-old white woman who had breast cancer and is for Obama.  I believe he is the only person who can start our country going towards the right direction.  Even if Obama and Clinton were exactly the same in their plans, Hillary cannot get republicans on her side.  She is too polarizing (even if she could win, which I doubt) 

    If you want people to flock to our party with the idea of changing the directrion of our country, you better step up, and step up soon, and declare for Obama.

    I can't imagine why you haven't already done this.  I just don't believe you are doing this to preserve your (potential) position on a Clinton cabinet.  I hope that isn't why.  Please don't let us down.
