John Edwards - Mitt Romney and Two Americas?

[britainmalbangkok]

This is why we have Occupy Wall Street, because of Greedy Bastard liars that are afraid that the Poor will uprise aginst the rich.

[Baroque1750]

LOL Edwards still backs up his class warfare strategies! And no, the gap between the rich and poor is smaller than it ever has been.

[britainmalbangkok]

@Baroque1750 It really is, I don't think so!

[jamesspencerjackson]

I would have preferred John Edwards over Obama or McCain. He was a conservative democrat, which is very unusual at this day and age.

[CherubimandAngels]

Now, we know John Edwards was so right about their being two Americas, "Wall Street" and "Main Street" He is also right when he advocates that the government, instead of putting money into the bank accounts of the unshamefull, and unrepentant Wall Street robbers and con men, should set up savings accounts for the average person on "main street'.

[JackRussellTerrier2]

But Mr. Romney, there are two americas, North America and South America.

[Sherlyjames]

You gave a good speech Edwards in Iowa the last night, I did not think it angry. Mitt is a spoiled rich kid, but more than that he feel being president is his birthright. The latter being the scariest of all. The United States Presidency is not a birthright, and is not to be bought. Your voice is among the several good voices to be heard which the American people need to hear.

[reddog223]

apparently not since he quit

[Sherlyjames]

you mean Romney may a 'learned' the presidency isn't his birthright? ( don't let him fool you--- he still does)

[reddog223]

hes not coming back trust me and id rather have him then mccain

[Sherlyjames]

No way Mitt --- in any case. The speech Mitt gave when he stepped down from the race was enough to show the deep level of indoctrination and false honesty he has. Republican voters have had a difficult time with candidates this year-- and I think most republicans know their bid for the white house is going to be a difficult race to win. Roves mentality was allowed to go to far and too unchecked--- a country cannot be run on dirty tricks- Roves influence should have been checked.

[ss0rca]

I am one of 71,000 homeowners who is losing my house to foreclosure in the Detroit area. I am certainly not wealthy, but I would like to be. I have absolutely no doubt in my mind that it is the Democrats platform of over taxation, big government, over regulation to crush the spirits and ability of small entrepreneur's and the common man to succeed. Democrats think we need a holding hand for everything. We just need them to get the hell out of the way. Don't blame the rich. Blame bureaucracy.

[CitizenCC]

Mitt states that he reads the Gideon Bible when staying in hotels trying to identify with the average Christian. To Mormons, this simple statement means he reads this ONLY when traveling, and ONLY when not having a copy of the Book of Mormon. This is called good public relations.

[CitizenCC]

Mitt attempts to straddle the Christian/Mormon divide with word games to appease all parties. Warren Jeffs played this game, too. Rick tried to convey multiple messages to different groups by using the same spoken words.

Buyer beware...Mitt is not what he appears to be.

[moparmuscle1970]

Mitt Romney is trying to buy his way into office. He is also a liar and that means he is corrupt!

Mitt Romney CAUGHT in a BOLD FACE LIE! Watch it on YouTube - Mitt Romney: From Flip-Flop To See-Saw

Proof that Romney IS a LIAR!

Oh yeah, he is also a draft dodger and none of his sons who are of enlistment age are serving in Iraq.

Bring back the United States Constitution and have an honest man in office...vote Ron Paul!

[Sherlyjames]

Romney made his money from Gazprom and Lukoil. Gazprom a russian company, and Lukoil oil invovled in the Food for Oil Scandel.

Romney owes his wealth to high level Russians some former KGB, how can this nation have a man sitting in the white house who owes his wealth to another nation's, especially Russia, leadership and connections?

Romney is not telling the truth about his families connections.

[reddog223]

the Clintons owe theirs to china

[sbrt1l]

Go Mitt Romney. I think he is easily the best, and so do all of my friends!

[grazon]

No one cares.

[tinabees]

Mitt is a loser.

[unciowa]

I hope you are all prepared, if John Edwards wins, to give your life over to the government, it will be awesome to pay for everyone elses health care, the government care, and then buy my own private insurance. Look at Canada folks, Universal is not the answer.

[grazon]

What a bunch of shit.

[bgabbs69]

RON PAUL 2008. Vote for the everyman.

[LIGO4less]

welcometheplagueyear, u r right. The whole thing about illegal aliens is a racism against HISPANICS. First there were black people hanged and killed by life-long Republicans like Strom Turmondt, now GOP wants to give hell to HISPANICS. Enforce the law - says MITT but THIS IS NOT THE LAW THAT HE CARES ABOUT, IT'S THE COLOR OF THE SKIN , HE HATES THOSE WHO ISN'T WHITE.

MITT APARTEID ROMNEY IN 2008!!!!

[rrgaul]

Mitt will be a God when he dies,and he knows it? They did that in Egypt also. Heck with powers like a God he may get the jump on things. Was it Romans also that were Gods? I cant trust Romney thinking he may be a God! I have seen 7 years of someone thinking they are God.We need change.Not another God! Go John Edwards

[jayezzo]

Mitt Romney is raciest and a suck up to the Zionist Jews for their Media and the free advertising.

[welcometheplagueyear]

u hear about romney firing the immigrants working at his house

he wouldn't care if it wasn't for

the cnn debates and giuliani pointing it out

[grazon]

They weren't just immigrants they were illegal immigrants.

[welcometheplagueyear]

they weren't just illegal immigrants they were Illegal Hispanic Immigrants

[grazon]

I don't have a problem with their being Hispanic I have a problem with people that don't respect sovereignty and that includes Mittens.

[Roastedtaco1]

ha spammer, im not going to cause you can't tell me what he can do for me, just REGISTER FOR RON, how about ...no.

[hombiaca]

there are two americas, the one conservatives live in and the one liberals live in, the only time they mingle is to talk trash about the other, does anyone else see a problem with this?

[grazon]

Yes.

[Roastedtaco1]

lol true that

[mschmitz31]

Of course! I agree 100%

Also, I don't know why everyone has to attack each other's opinions and political views with such vehemence.... come on people. We're adults. Let's try to be civil here.

[jaredjbrown]

Why does edwards need to take on Romney during a primary? Because he never wants to face him in a national election.

[deadxlikexmeg]

Romney is narcissist and an awful public speaker. The Giuliani/Romney debate is direct proof of that.

[gusrostra]

yeah! kick-ass video!

Edwards is finally getting it. Sure hope Iowa will follow his lead.

[longtalltexan63]

Edwards is getting it? He is a pompous millionaire.

[grazon]

And what is Bush if not a pompous millionaire?

The difference is Edwards worked for his wealth.

Bush owes everything he has to his daddy.

[JameslovesBridgette]

Mitt Romney is an idiot- plain and simple! He has no idea how to address the issues of our nation. John Edwards, on the other hand will get things done!! John Edwards 2008!!!

[MamaBear2008]

John will fight with everything he has to make democracy work for everyone and reunite this nation.

[concretewater87]

When I saw Romney say this o the debate, I wanted to throw something at MY tv! what a piece of shit. The only thing worse than romney elected president in 2008 would be if bush had a third term. don't elect that fool. JOHN EDWARDS FOR PRESIDENT!

[j3sas2]

why is it that all of the republican candidates seem to bash democrats? Its not a debate its just dem bashing!

[exweez]

what planet are you from the dem debate was bush this and bush that and he not running.not one idea except for more taxes abd bigger government.oh and i almost fogot surrender to islamic extremists.keep the socialist agenda see how far that takes you

[gangreneday]

The dems offer a lot... they're like Santa Claus. But Santa Claus doesn't tax you 364 days out of the year.

That's why I'm going with Ron Paul. He'll let me keep my own money and not let it go to some stupid war or redundant department. Come on, Mr. Edwards, join the Revolution!

[grazon]

The Mountain does not come to you.

[gangreneday]

Sorry, I'm not getting the reference.

[grazon]

If the mountain won't come to Muhammad, Muhammad must go to the mountain.

[gangreneday]

Ha! Very good. I have heard that saying. I feel more cultured already.

[grazon]

Do you understand how it applies to this situation?

[gangreneday]

I understand how YOU are applying it. I completely disagree. It's one thing for an individual to go to the mountain, it's another for the state to take you by force.

[grazon]

Well since you seem to be reasonable I've got to ask.

Who are you going to vote for in the general election when Ron Paul doesn't get the Republican nomination?

[gangreneday]

Ron Paul. As long as I have a vote, I'll vote for Ron Paul, including IF he doesn't get the nomination.

If I had to choose any other candidate running (meaning if there was no Ron Paul), I might consider Bill Richardson (though he and I disagree in principle, I'd trust him more than any other Rep or Dem). But all in all, I'm for smaller government, low taxes, and an end to the wars, Clinton's included.

[grazon]

I'd talk trash about Clinton but you never know who's reading your words on youtube. lol

[gangreneday]

Yeah... honestly I don't dislike her any more than I dislike many of the Republican Neo-Cons, but that's not saying much. And Edwards voted for the war, and even when he was running in 2004, they gave the spiel about staying the course... That's McCain's platform. There are too many people who were RIGHT about the war (Ron Paul included) for us to elect someone who admits to being wrong... or in Hill's case, won't admit it.

[grazon]

Edwards also had the sack to admit he made the mistake of his life when he co-authored that bill.

BTW Bill Maher does an amazing job explaining why so many Democrats voted for that bill.

just search for him and Tucker Carlson you'll find it.

[mattsup69]

the conservatives are in the minority now. john edwards for progressive leadership - 08

[gbb14]

Someone needs to hand Edwards an economics book. The poor and middle class are in the best position they've been in the history of American in wages, standard of living, etc. The fact that the rich get richer is a byproduct of that, deal with it. Why doesn't he move to Cuba or Venezuela or France and see how big government works for the lower classes. Income disparity does not reveal how the poor and middle class are doing. This is a joke.

[Dubeyest]

what middle class?

[mattsup69]

wrong

[weirdoveirdo]

Logical and factual fallacy. The standard of life in the US is awful. The rich/poor gap is huge, which is bad no matter what. And the dollar is weak, and getting weaker, so things end up being even worse than they look.

[Kiaininja]

Lol, Romney sounds like Porky Pig "thudaduda...that's all folks".

[BLUETIB]

Tricks and treachery are the practice of fools

that don't have brains enough to be honest.

-Benjamin Franklin

John is right, but sorry for him a Revolution

is going on, maybe next time...

[blair227]

John Edwards 08.

[DevBlazed]

Right on John... good luck but this time im part of the Revolution.

[BLUETIB]

Revolution is going on, patriots be part of it.

December 16 is a great opportunity to change our Plutocracy to a REAL Democracy.

Ron Paul Revolution

[Lazerguy5]

LOL. Good response Mr. Edwards. Romney is a joke.

[strobelite33]

wow way to go john edwards. you made a shitty video attacking a second-rate candidate. your "two americas" wedge issue doesn't mean a thing until you actually propose a legitimate answer to problems.

[auntbecky]

have you been paying attention. that's what his whole campaign has been about.

[ScornedbySara]

Anyone who values their freedom and fears the Mark of the Beast should oppose Mitt Romney, who has openly stated his support of biometrics.

[DarkMagnor]

I'm afraid of first century Roman coins with Nero's name on them too. Nevertheless, you should still oppose Mitt Romney for a multitude of sane reasons.

[ScornedbySara]

It is a sane reason. He wants a National ID card and retinal scans. That's what biometrics are.

[auntbecky]

So, Mitt Romney is the anti-christ? I mean I know he's a jerk, but he's not that bad.

[LittleRachael]

Okay, I admit it. I laughed. :)

A light-hearted response to an attack is fine. I just hope that none of the candidates I support will refrain from making personal attacks.

[DevBlazed]

I support Ron Paul, and he doesn't make personal attacks. He is a humble man and will be an inspiring leader.

[grazon]

No his followers do all his dirty work for him.

[percymate]

He's denying that there are different classes! Screw Mitt Romney!

Vote for Ron Paul!!1

[ladylike1980]

Mitt Romney is so full of himself. Of course this country is divided. Did Romney not pay attention to the last couple of elections? That's was Edwards meant. Watching the Republican debates it was obvious that Romney is the worst bullshit artist in the world. Please God anyone by Romney. I'll take Rudy or Hillary or even Ron Paul or Mickey Mouse -

but please God not this phony!

[bi88283]

Phony? Bullshit artist? John Edwards is the biggest phony in either party. The haircut, the fake smile, the "2 Americas" he moans about while he lives in a huge mansion. Among other things, Edwards has gotten (even more) rich off of mortgage forclosures while pretending he cares about the poor. Don't complain about Romney's wealth until you can show me a Democrat candidate out there who's not filthy rich, or a Democrat who cares about the average American any more than any Republican politician.

[ladylike1980]

Bi88283 -

Did you catch the Republican debate the other night? We watched video of Romney;

Loves Abortion/Hates Abortion, Loves Gays/Decides He wants them in closet again,

He was the only republican that takes Bible literally, even Huck said he doesn't. Romney had the gull to talk down to John McCain about POW's. Romeny provided entertainment for anyone watching. We couldn't stop laughing AT him.

[ladylike1980]

Bi88283 -

By the way - I am not a John Edwards supporter. I don't care if Romney has money.

Romney is a used car salesman and not a very good one either like Bill Clinton.

[weirdoveirdo]

At least Bill is a good one.

[1acrimosa]

The only people who think that money isn't an issue are people with money.

You guys have some EXCELLENT ad creators in your corner- keep it up!

[ladylike1980]

It's okay to be rich and run for president but Mitt Romney is living in a fool's paradise in some country club and it's painfully obvious. Who in the world would vote for this phony, uncaring, bullshit artist? How many people can relate to this man? He is the last person on earth I would want as my President.

[jmilo22]

spending 100 bills to fill up your hummer-$100 On visa platinum

spending billions on a senseless war- trillions on future generations pocketbooks

voting for any ignorant republican like Romney in 08' election...priceless

Edwards 08' the truth hurts

[exweez]

edwards is an empty suit,he couldn't even get reelected to his senate seat.you need to find a different loser to hitch your wagon to

[auntbecky]

um, sweetie......he left to run for vp.

[exweez]

um,honey.....he left because he couldn't get elected to dogcather in N. Carolina

[MamaBear2008]

He left to run for Vice-President.

[grazon]

Edwards won election to the U.S. Senate in 1998 as against incumbent Republican Senator Lauch Faircloth. Edwards beat Faircloth by 51.2% to 47.0%.

[jayalan77]

I agree with yall. there are 2 americas, one where people work for what they have and one where people wait on their fat lazy asses to be taken care of, like the people still living in toxic trailers in New Orleans

[grazon]

Fuck you ya sack of shit some of those people lost EVERYTHING what part of that don't you get???

[weirdoveirdo]

What the hell is wrong with you? There is nothing they can do without our help. They have nothing. As Ben Franklin said "We must all hang together, or we will all hang together." that means we either aid each other, or America fails, asshole!

[pilotsdaughter]

Tell the people still living in toxic trailers in New Orleans that there is one America. Tell the people who have had their civil rights stripped by Bush and Cheney all in the name of "war on terror" ane tell the children who go to bed hungry that about one America. John Edwards in 2008.

[auntbecky]

btw, fema's going to be closing those trailers, so now what, Gov. Romney. If you don't think there are two America's, go back to your home state (not MA or UT) and see everyone out of work there and tell them there is only one America.

[cloud1232006]

Ron Paul 08!

Rommney and Edwards are in bed together at the CFR ^_^ dont vote for cfr scum

[grazon]

Have you ever seen a complete list of all the people that are part of the CFR?

[lgmccarville]

Mitt Romney health plan please. If am man working at McDonald's full time has a family of five has to pay a government forced insurance priemium for his family them how does he pay his rent and food and car and everything else bill. This man is so rich that he can't understand poverty. Mitt go live on 6000.00 dollars for the next six months and tell me if you still believe there is only one America. Lord help us if this man ever get national power.

[weirdoveirdo]

WARNING: I AM GOING TO SAY STUFF YOU PROBABLY DON'T WANT TO HEAR!

For all you out there who actually believe in JE, here is the truth. I went to his website, and read his plans. There are a handful of decent ones. Then there are a lot of naive and stupid ones. And then there are horrendus and scary ones. Like the fact that he wants to give the president specific item veto power. And that he would NOT work to abolish the patriot act. And his famed health care plan is shit.

[auntbecky]

um, they all want line item veto.

[weirdoveirdo]

So? Does this make it any better? Edwards is tryig to sell himslef as borderline-revolutionary, but really it's just same shit, diff toilet. He is still the best choice, not because of his merits, but because there is no one better. Sad, huh?

[daderone]

Lol John tell em about how this guy has made his riches investing in Iranian oil.

Tell em about how he said we should use Hizbollah's role in creating democracy and providing healthcare in Lebannon should be used as models for the types of diplomacy he'd like to promote.

LOL Romney has no chance against Edwards

[weirdoveirdo]

Well, unfortunatley for us,Rommney is far more likley to get the GOP nomination than Edwards is to get the Dem one.

[grazon]

Edwards has got one hell of a lot better chance than Ron Paul of winning.

[Muskie1fan]

"I'm a republican. Others are republicans. The party to vote for would be the republican party because we are republicans. So remember to show your republican'ism and vote for the real republican...Me...Mitt Romney. The Republican."

If you haven't seen his awful tv spot running in Iowa...look it up!! HAHAHAHA

[blair227]

Hey Mitt every time I see you I want to load my AK47 and shoot my TV. You are absolutely the biggest fucking phoney I have ever seen run for president. All you are is a cheap mouthpiece for the Heritage Foundation.

[ColonelSandurz]

Nice to see a candidate who will criticize an opponent's policy stance rather than resort to personal attacks. Is the best the Republicans have on Edwards still the expensive haircut?

[charlesf]

Really good ad from the Edwards campaign.

[btinder711]

great ad, and I'm an Obama supporter

[daderone]

I don't mind Obama...I like Edwards better myself. I've donated 2 both.

Edwards just kept leading on every issue, seeming more presidential, having more comprehensive and progressive agendas for the Democratic party and nation that he almost reluctantly pulled me from Obama. I'm really just trying to be as honest as possible.

[mfyyre]

You're a rich man, Mr. Romney. You aren't American -- you are a part of the slave driving "Ruling Class" -- you are what is wrong with America. You are not a solution, you are a problem.

[SparklestheClown]

Ok, let's get it straight - I watched the debate. 1) Mitt Romney did not sound presidential. However, he is right and wrong. ONE AMERICA - But financially, there are several AMERICAS - Many do not have the money to travel in his circles. Obama's either. It should prove to be interesting. But all of the candidates need to shine - not stab each other, but show what they will do for us!

[voyzovrezon]

There are two Americas, the real one, and Romney world. And the latter one is a very twisted and disturbing place.

[semiliteratedgod]

Romney is a fucking dangerous nazi! I just can't stand him after this shocking video: /watch?v=GbQLuZ28EEM (the torture question)

[phyllisfiredwards]

Well Mitt look out son. you thought that Rudy was getting mad at some of the craiziness you utter.. It is going to be a bumpy ride now!! There aren't 2 Americas?? Ph that right you only live in ONE and don't give a damn about the other!

Go Edwards!!!

[sfmandrew]

Mitt Romney is one of those born rich politicians who just doesn't understand, or care, what it's like for American's who struggle financially. We need to build One America, it doesn't just happen by pretending.

[leroyinc]

Mitt Romney knows what John Edwards means when he says there are two Americas, but he plays dumb to make his point anyway -- just like John Edwards does, just like all politicians do, left and right. To hell with all of you disingenuous pieces of garbage.

[panicbean]

Every time I see Mitt Romney on the teevee I want to throw something at it.

Good for John Edwards for pointing out that if we elect another Republican to office, it will be another loooong 4 years of poverty and illness for those who have already suffered and gone without for far too long...

Go John Edwards! He is the best candidate with the most to offer America, and we need him desparately!

No more Republicans!

[TuckerdogNC]

The best thing that could happen is everytime a pundit or the corporate media announce someone wins or is in the lead, everyone should vote for "the underdogs" so we would actually have a convention that DID something vs. all this hot air and the outcomes already been decided by Cheerleader News Now, Disney, Lockheed Martin and GE.

[TuckerdogNC]

Listen closely: He first says "two ameriCANS." Edwards will never get a chance because corporate Amurika has decided it's Clinton and Giuilani. They want Giuilani so there it is. Then, the 5% of people that vote in primaries will make the final decision in February when 40 out of 50 states vote. So, that will be that.

[auntbecky]

ok, and howard dean is president.

[sparkleon]

You sure know that the religious right is at it again, again, and again. Mitt Romney would know nothing of the pain that the less fortunate feel and worry about. Mormon or not, his views are that of the born again right wing crazies... God save us from another 4 years of radical beliefs.

[IBHereforever]

His ads playing on the debating/campaigning weaknesses of others are brilliant!!! I only hope other people can see that too, before it's too late.

[terraceterra]

Mit Romney has nothing good to offer America. NOTHING! Yuck.. He is simply awful and wrong on almost everything. Very similar to our current president but maybe worse. Lets not find out.
