It's great news today. Nobody from the netroots needs to vote in the primaries next year. Edwards has won. How did he win this you say? It's easy. Reading these diaries today, even Kos's, Edwards is the only one running that has shone leadership. Now how did he show this leadership when Hillary and Obama failed? He went on MSM and proclaimed his dislike for the bill that was voted on today in the congress. More below the fold.
Now did John Edwards need to vote today? No, he is no longer in the Senate. How did he win over the netroots against Obama you ask? Obama didn't go on MSM yesterday and proclaime his vote. Did he vote the way Dkos wanted? Hell yes, but that dosen't matter anymore. You need to lead, Obama,you wimp. Hey it dosen't matter if you voted right, you weren't the first to vote right. Hell there were 13 other senators that voted before you, maybe? Was Hillary the 13th or 14th to vote? I don't know from reading this site today. Either Obama or Hillary were the last to vote for this and they both waited for the other 80 people to vote to cover their butts. Hey, if they had been number 67 and 68 to vote they would have been heros here. But alas they didn't.
Edwards went on t.v. last night,not thinking of politics at all, and proclaimed for all the right way to vote,even though he didn't have to vote today the netroots fell in love. Obama and Hillary you blew it. You didn't rush to the cameras. You commited a big sin on this site. You took a day and read the bill. This is not acceptable here. Yes you voted the right way but you should have been on t.v. last night. What losers. For all of the Obama supproters here, welcome to the world of Hillary on this site. You will never win. Give up and vote for Edwards otherwise you are a loser according to this site.
Give it up.
