He never uses the term "filibuster" but it is implied very strongly. "Whatever means possible" obviously means a filibuster to me.

In case you are saying to yourself John Who?  He is the former senator from North Carolina, and he served as the running mate of John Kerry in 2004, and John Kerry served in Vietnam as a young man.

I see that Edwards is now using polysyllabic words. How long did he practice before he could say "filibuster"?

John "Pretty Boy Cookie-Cutter Former Senator" Edwards should just STHU and go chase some ambulance.

Of course it goes without saying, he's still living in that "other America" in his two America's he was always yapping about.

You are correct. MoveOn.org sent out newsletters to their lists about 2 weeks ago calling for an Alito filibuster.

So, I interpret it the same way you do.

I actually want them to fillibuster Alito. They seem not to be as good at Game Theory as they usually are. It really would hurt them a lot to do it, after their failure in the committee.

Is Edwards the same Senator Edwards who made a fortune by milking the medical profession for malpractice? Why should anyone listen to Edwards? Where are his arguments against Alito? Is Edwards against Alito because he also hates anyone Republican?

John is worried that the Supreme Court might impact his ability to chase emergency vehicles.

Oh.yeah...John endorse a filibuster when you are NOT in the Senate to have to participate...

The only reason you are calling for it...is because you know Alito is a slam dunk, and when you run for POTUS in 2008...you can blast Biden and Kerry and any other dem senator that would run against you...don't forget Hillary...for NOT keeping Alito out of the SCOTUS!!

You are so transparent...because you are so shallow.

Yes, the Senate Dems need advice from a real winner like Edwards....

I can still remember the media frenzy and love-fest of adoration when Kerry picked the up and coming Edwards as his VP candidate....

...geez, did this guy crash and burn or what?!!
