Ping for our illustrious Senator from NC. The ambulance chaser at work

It would be oh so wonderful if the good people of North Carolina flooded Edwards' office with phone calls and emails. They need to shame him, and scare him to death about losing support back in the homestate, for the mean and vicious partisan attack on Pickering. .

You know what would be more wonderful? If they people of NC kicked him out of office next election. Too late I guess, he's running for President...

[Lady In Blue]

Great idea! I was just over at lucianne.com where I picked up this article.One of the posters over there said the same thing!

NC bump list.

John Edwards is a scumbag, it does no good to call, write, fax etc etc. He could care less about his constituents.

I've contacted his office several time, his staff is rude and he doesn't even bother responding to letters.

Johnny boy is using his brief stint in the Senate for one reason only, a leg up to the White House. I keep praying for a scandal to show up in his past somewhere. Although I guess scandal doesn't matter anymore.

"The fact that both participate in such destructive orgies casts a ghastly pall over the nomination process and, by extension, representative government itself."

Sad, but true.

[Rome2000]

Let him run , I think even the retards in the population are sick and tired of watching slick Rat lawyers lie their way into the White House.

[Lady In Blue]

Yes,but 1 side(Dems)has a lock on it!

When John Edwards ran for the senate a lawyer friend told me he was giving some thought to voting for him because he was considered a good guy by the legal profession and would be fair and non partisan. I told him that a democrat is a democrat is a democrat. Party first and always. He did not vote for Edwards and the after experience has made him a wiser and more ardent Republican.

[Lady In Blue]

You did good,mountainfolk! I hope that your friend stays on the right track,if you know what I mean! lol!

[marajade]

If you compare the percentage rates of how many judges are getting confirmed the Senate now run by Dems has one of the lowest in history. Just the other day FNC stated something like 43% compared with a much higher figure under the Rep senate under Clinton.

Wonder if Sen. Ambulance Chaser Edwards got that giant wart removed from his lip...Ewwwwwww!

There is a consistancy in the American voter over long periods. When times are good and there are no big problems, our people tend to vote for a divided governemnt. I think that it is just a result of what they want. They don't say I want divided government. They say here is the guy who will do what I want done.. and that produces divided government. When things are good they don't want people to change things that might make things bad. The out of party candidates attack whatever the president is trying to do and that appeals to the voters. The in power party is trying to change things their way,and people tend to not vote for things that change good times.

But when times are bad or there are other problems the people wants a United Government. They want a congress and president to work together to fix things.

For a president to hold popularity in problem filled times he has to be seen as trying to fix things. That is what Bush is doing. He has a plan to fix every problem. He knows that in troubled times, problem fixers are popular.

The Democrats are persuing the tactics best used when things are good. They attack Bush. But if they were smart they would work with Bush. They would present a Democrat Senate as a unifying force. They would be first with the fixes and they would propose fixes bush would oppose. That wa they could make him the force standing in the way of fixing things.

The course of action the Democrats are taking has never worked. When there are problems a good rule is to never fight with a president that is trying to fix them. They would have to present fixes that the president can't accept. You have pass them so the public sees the president as the man standing in the way of fixing the problems.

But Daschle and Gephard, and all the rest are standing in the way of Bush's fixes. In the past people who do that get run over by the voters at the polls.

Loved your post,Common Tator! From your lips to God's ear!
