I hate that our fate is in your hands Iowa. I hate that you get to decide for me. I hate that my voice isn't heard, again. Most of the time, you've not only ruled out my first choices but also my second. I haven't quite forgiven you yet. But I want to.
You can make up for ALL of it by backing John Edwards for president of the United States. SHOW UP! Undoing what Bush and Cheney and their band of thugs have done to us will take a hard working pragmatic president who isn't afraid of corporations.
We need somebody who will fight for US instead of for the corporations. John Edwards will fight for us. Don't let me down again, Iowa! Please. Democrats! Get out there no matter how cold the MSM keeps telling us it is! Put on a jacket...get going! And to those Edwards supporters in Iowa doing the canvassing, making the phone calls, doing the work in the trenches, KUDOS, my hat's off to all of you. Thank you. Sincerely. All I could do was send some money, not nearly as gratifying.
No offense meant to you personally Iowans, but what if we Californians decided for YOU who your next president might be and your choice was eliminated by US? How would YOU like it? I didn't like your choice in 2004. And look at what happened. Make up for it now. John Edwards!
No, not a lot of links...all you need to know about John Edwards has already been linked by diligent diarists and thoughtful commenters. I just had to get my two cents worth in before tonight. Don't break my heart again, Iowa. Decades of this has worn me down. With Edwards we have REAL hope. PLEASE!
Full disclosure: I'm a Gore fan; if I can't have Gore, I want Edwards.
As I have since I cast my first vote decades ago, I will vote for the Democratic candidates on my ballot. The "worst" Democrat is better than the "best" Republican, imo. I'm tired of having my hopes, dreams and aspirations for America dashed. Don't vote in your own worst interests. Come on, Iowans. Give us some hope. Thank you very much in advance.
Respectfully yours, waiting in CA.
