Now maybe he can fill the void left by Mother Theresa.
If anyone ever tells you that you put too much Parmesan cheese on your pasta, stop talking to them. You don't need that kind of negativity in your life.
Thats too bad - he brought an important voice to the primary.
Personally I think it was the press that has made it impossible for him to be a viable candidate . They only focused on Obama and Clinton. The press has taken a far too important role in this election.

He got more coverage than some of the others. He was just on Letterman which is pretty huge.

Its really a shame. He should have atleast stayed in til super tuesday to see if he would have had any say come convention time, cause that would have been interesting.
I agree with Marc, the press has sacrificed the story for sensationalized Details-At-Eleven watch-me headlines and sound bytes. Edwards was written off in favor a juicier Clinton/Obama smackdown.

He may have been on Letterman, but the mainstream news media has virtually ignored him since Iowa, slobbering over the two way fight they themselves helped create. I expected more of CNN, but they're a big corporation and no doubt against Edwards' populist and anti-big business message. I'm disappointed he didn't stay in through Tuesday, but I assume he has his reasons.
Strikes me as nice fellow but his political capital went down the drain with Kerry's presidential aspirations. Too many Dems declared him damaged goods after Kerry and he failed to carry NC in 2004. Yes, the mainly liberal media do want either the Tammy Wynettish-Clinton or Kennedesque-Obama to be sworn in as the next president.
The mainly liberal media? Like the one ran by that pinko commie Rupert Murdoch? Give me a break... maybe the reporters and journalists tend to be liberal, but their bosses almost never are.
Right, the so called liberal media is a joke. If the media had a liberal bias they would have given far more time to Edwards (and Kucinich) who is actually a liberal.
Javero--do you honestly think the media is "liberal"? Do you not understand how for 7 years or more the media has constantly reinforced the conservative status quo?
"Do you not understand how for 7 years or more the media has constantly reinforced the conservative status quo?"
What media is that? The windmills in your mind media? The media falls consistently on the liberal side.

What channels are you watching Goth? Aside from the NYTimes, I can't think of a major media outlet that has a liberal bias--the other NYC papers certainly don't--the free ones do--but that's their purpose.
