Why Former Senator John Edwards’ Endorsement Matters So Much

The republicans today are totally missing the point as to why an endorsement by John Edwards would make such a difference with voters in the southeastern part of our country. John Edwards is one of our own and his option counts when he speaks people in the south listen. One of the major problems with Obama’s campaign in West Virginia was that he needed a well respected person like John Edwards to speak for him in my old home state. I know that he had Senator Jay Rockefeller working for him but he was a little too close to home to make a major difference in how people voted. He is still a well respected Senator from the state of West Virginia. I can think of no man other then John Edwards who cares more about the working poor. He has spent his whole life working to protect and growing up with the working poor. He is the hometown son that has made good. I would completely trust John to stand by the working poor and allow no harm to come to them from his choice for president. John Edwards has always been a defender of the very people that Senator Obama needs to reach out and connect to in the near future. Senator Obama has made a major step forward in the right direction by getting an endorsement from John Edwards. John Edwards says it is time to unite our party behind Senator Obama then that is what we should be doing. The time has come and we can not deny the truth of the day.
