http://www.democraticunderground.com http://blogs.law.harvard.edu/tech/rss Sat, 25 May 2013 04:52:45 Sat, 25 May 2013 04:52:45 I went to my surprisingly empty polling place a couple of hours ago, and warily walked up to the electronic machine (with no paper trail whatsoever, that's going to be [i]awesome[/i] in November) wondering if writing in a candidate was going to be an option. I was fully prepared to pitch a huge fit... http://journals.democraticunderground.com/iris5426/16 Tue, 22 Apr 2008 12:14:24 I read this, and my only reaction was: :wow: Seriously?? Pretty appalling if you ask me. And please don't call me elitist or something for sharing this, that's not what it's meant to be. And I also want to disclaim that I didn't have time yet to read the Wapo article it references as a source, bu... http://journals.democraticunderground.com/iris5426/14 Tue, 11 Mar 2008 16:07:58 I was shopping yesterday before I had to go to a bridal shower, and when I came out to my car (mind you, moments before the friend I was with had looked at my car and said, "Jude, you know Edwards isn't running anymore, right? Isn't it time to take that thing off your car?") and as I went to get in... http://journals.democraticunderground.com/iris5426/15 Mon, 10 Mar 2008 12:35:55 I know there are a lot of people on this board with Pittsburgh connections, so I wanted to share the sad news that Myron Cope passed away today at the age of 79...he was a legend, and he'll be dearly missed. My terrible towel is at half mast! :-(

Here's an article:

Far from the reaches of kingdom and pope

But it was... http://journals.democraticunderground.com/iris5426/10 Wed, 30 Jan 2008 20:49:22 I borrowed a little from you, your letter was so good that I couldn't say it better. :hug: So long that he probably will never read it, but I feel better. Here's mine:

Dear Senator Edwards,

After hearing the news that you were announcing your departure from the race today, I was devastated. ... http://journals.democraticunderground.com/iris5426/9 Wed, 30 Jan 2008 17:52:04 It makes no sense. Yes he came in third in SC, but his support was growing immensely after the debate. He raised more money in the past 25 days than in all of the 4th quarter of last year, and over half was from new donors. His support was growing. He repeatedly said he was in until the end. I'... http://journals.democraticunderground.com/iris5426/8 Wed, 30 Jan 2008 15:07:51 Why should Edwards drop out? It's up to one person - him. And he's shaping the issues in this race and bringing to light the things that matter and should really be talked about. [b]The saddest part about the current state of our democratic process is the people who say "I really like John Edward... http://journals.democraticunderground.com/iris5426/7 Tue, 29 Jan 2008 14:49:16 I posted this bulletin on my myspace page (though it could be posted on anyone's blog if you have one somewhere...

[div class="excerpt"]Hi all...there's a new grassroots effort to raise $200,000 for John Edwards tomorrow, January 30th, the night before the next debate.

John has recently been ... http://journals.democraticunderground.com/iris5426/6 Tue, 29 Jan 2008 13:33:37 This is an email I just got, thought it might be a good thing to share:


Despite the fact that he is the best candidate on just about every
issue, after being rudely shut out of the debates before his time
perhaps it was inevitable he would not be able to sustain a run for
president. But toda... http://journals.democraticunderground.com/iris5426/5 Mon, 28 Jan 2008 11:29:39 http://www.huffingtonpost.com/leslie-savan/could-edwards-beat-mccain_b_83371.html


Could Edwards Beat McCain? The Polls Won't Tell Us

Yesterday's Zogby poll has Edwards within Iowa-like striking distance of Hillary for second place in today's South Ca... http://journals.democraticunderground.com/iris5426/4 Mon, 28 Jan 2008 11:13:00 Prior to this election cycle, I have watched with some interest, but little involvement. A combination of seeing how excellent all of the contenders for the Democratic ticket were (and this was when they were all still in) and my utter disgust for the current administration and all of the contender... http://journals.democraticunderground.com/iris5426/3 Sun, 27 Jan 2008 17:31:49 It was actually made quite easy for my by the Edwards campaign, they just sent out an email encouraging their supporters to call their senators and gave the direct # to call for each (shameless Edwards plug :evilgrin:)

I’m writing to express, once again, my extreme dissatisfaction with the coverage given to John Edwards on your network. It was bad enough watching the debate last night and seeing him have to remind Wolf Blitzer that he was there, and that there were in fact three people participating in ... http://journals.democraticunderground.com/iris5426/1 Tue, 22 Jan 2008 10:50:45
