I believe that we need a strong progressive who is going to listen to everyday people, not shut us out of the debate. I agree that John Edwards is that person.

in a little bar in Newmarket, NH a week or so ago. That was all it took for me to know I would support him. He was sincere, engaging and very human. He wants the troops out of Iraq and health care for every American.

health care and Iraq are the biggies for me, and of course fighting poverty. I really don't think there's much of a contest between candidates if health care and poverty are your big issues. Edwards platform to alleviate poverty is the strongest of all the candidates.

The place was packed, standing room only, mostly middle aged and some elderly people as well as young people. This was a little restaurant/bar in tiny Newmarket NH at 1pm on a weekday and lots of people showed up. Edwards really shined. I think he will do well here.
