Once Again. I Back the Wrong Horse

John Edwards

DENVER - Democrat John Edwards is exiting the presidential race Wednesday, ending a scrappy underdog bid in which he steered his rivals toward progressive ideals while grappling with family hardship that roused voters' sympathies but never diverted his campaign, according to The Associated Press and NBC News.

I wonder if I can get money from a candidate who wants me to kill her/his opponent's chances. All I would have to do is back the opponent. I don't know if the Oklahoma Democratic Party will allow me to support another candidate. Probably not, so there goes my chances to be a delegate to the Democratic National Convention in Denver. Perhaps he could be the next Attorney General of the United States

We are a House Divided!

Divisions in the Greenflame Home?

Well, not really. Yes, I am planning on voting for John Edwards, and Cat will vote for Hillary Clinton in Oklahoma's February 5th Presidential Primary, but we will be happy with whomever the Democratic Party nominates because we know the nominee will way better than anyone the other guys will be able to scrape together.

John and Ivan

Here is another picture taken at the John Edwards rally. Glen Hightower is the more or less the "official" photographer of the Oklahma County Democratic Party.

A bit of a coincidence here. John and Ivan, in reality, have the same first names. They come from the same base names, just different cultural backgrounds. That's not important to anyone, except perhaps me.

John Edwards visits OKC

JOhn Edwards Speaks in OKC

I attended a rally in Oklahoma City to hear Presidential candidate John Edwards. It was held at the local Teamster Union Hall. We were pretty well packed in.

Short people really get no love at these things.
