I looked on-line to see when and where I should line up to vote for my favorite Democratic candidate. Good thing I hadn’t already put on my shoes. Rhode Island doesn’t vote until March!
People say that February’s Super Tuesday won’t decide the nomination, but that doesn’t change the fact that the majority of candidates have already dropped out. Other people in other states got to say which candidates I would be allowed to choose from, and that’s not fair. By the time we vote, Edwards may have gone the way of the dodo, leaving us with only Barack “Sock ‘Em” Obama and Hillary “Hit Low” Clinton as options.
I’m not entirely certain that we wouldn’t have been better off with a dodo.
On January 30, 2008, after this blog post, Edwards announced that he was suspending his campaign for the Presidency.
I’m a jinx 🙁
In retrospect I am happy to have been a jinx. Edwards would not have been a good candidate.
