I voted for John Edwards.
Because so many Clinton/Obama supporters can only see red instead of reason, I will explain why it was not a wasted vote. Someone has to be the adult.
For one thing, with the Democratic Party’s broken primary system, I could have split my votes. Vote my two-thirds at the polls and the other third at the precinct convention. I almost did that, but could not even figure out which one should get the two-thirds.
My Edwards vote was a statement.
At this point, I cannot sign on to either campaign. Rather than sit it out, I thought I would be one of those who went to the polls and said “I still am out here, and I don’t like what I’m seeing”. Once there is a candidate, I will go full bore for whoever it is.
But this cat fighting that is going on is playing into the hands of the GOP.
