Well, sometimes dreams are deferred for a little while. Such is the case with John Edwards' dream of the Presidency.
I am so proud of my Senator. I hope you all have seen the potential, talent and down right goodness of this man. Even in conceding, he shows impeccable timing - not staying a moment too long.
He has shown that he is the future of this party, and I hope the party embraces him and thanks him for running a disciplined, strong and CLASSY campaign for the Presidency. Alone among Senator Kerry's one-time rivals, his endorsement of our nominee will not ring hollow. He never played dirty. He played hard and he distinguished himself in the effort. Well done Senator Edwards.
Now go spend some time with those beautiful kids and come out fighting this summer.
Senator Kerry, you have shown yourself worthy. You have perservered through the down times, and come back stronger and better for the experience.
I will enthusiastically work for you this summer and fall. The alternative is too hideous to contemplate.
Kerry/Edwards in 2004!
