John Edwards - "Grown Up" Ad

[TheJboogie314]

So on that stage we had.............

A man who cheated on his wife while she had cancer then used campaign funds to cover it up.

A future President that learned political science from a domestic terrorist and sat in church full of America haters.

And a woman who's husband was getting a blowjob from an intern while we had the chance to get Bin Laden before 9/11.

[arbiterjei]

I just noticed that George Bush and Dick Cheney's names in a certain order say 'dick bush' LMAOOOOOO

[ilocarapid]

I don't care what his private life was - the scandal just pointed out what a slippery phony he has always been his whole public life.

[whatisupnow]

John Edwards 2012.

This man has untouchable talent in fabricating and spreading truth.

[pinochet222]

"Last Sign In:

1 year ago"

abandoned channel, ridiculous content (in retrospect) ... LOL

[poops1]

edwards should have an ad called "the rielle sex tape" LOL

[ginaswo]

how many children of John Edwards HAVE HEALTH CARE?

LYING FRAKKER

[lcromy]

Not only has this bastard ruined hundreds if not thousands of peoples lives from putting OBGYN's out of business through frivolus law suits, but cheated on his poor wife while she was going through cancer.

John Edwards is one of the greatest examples of a bastard on the planet. I pitty this man's soul.

[SylarNWO]

I supported John, and I really wish he hadn't messed up with his wife, because that just messed up his opportunity to ever run for president again.

[Marei23]

Actually, him screwing over his "Dying Wife" should truthfully show what kind of president he would have been a "shitty" one.

[m015094]

John Edwards is such a piece of shit.

And to think I actually supported him - it makes me sick.

[Marei23]

I'm still shocked his wife played along with covering up his lie that was bound to come out. Luckily, the guy did not get the Dem nomination because if he had it'd be President McCain right now. Horrible thought.

[wilma789a]

Do you see how twisted and corrupt our government and those that represent US are? Watch: Presidential Candidates for the North American Union ( heads should roll like a muther fucker!)

[robertwienerrocks]

Whatever happened....this man set the current, admirable Democratic platform. Nothing can take that away.

[TrueBlueCrusader]

Undoubtedly the greatest voice on behalf of the poor and disadvantaged since Bobby Kennedy. He had an affair, yes, and it was obviously a stupid mistake, but this man had a great platform and stood up for things few people make a central point in their campaigns these days.

I know that I'll always know that John Edwards was one of the first politicians I love and will always support and defend.

[cinnamonfantasy]

That did'nt turn out so well, did it.

"Ohh my wife has cancer, I'll think I'll fuck another chick"- John "$400 haircut" Edwards

I could see through his conceited smile the first time I saw him.

Fuck Obama and Bush!

Wake up, stop supporting this douche he is a politician they are all liars and cheats.

[CULAVE]

I don't care if Senator Edwards had an affair- that was a mistake against his wife but NOT the American people. Call me boring, but policy is all that matters in voting

[Slorginvader]

I strongly agree, Only I would vote for Nader, but I'm no US citizin...

[CULAVE]

Slorginvader- Cheers- actually im British myself; I had been keen for the Dems until I discovered the Obama-Biden ticket is considering a war in Pakistan. That is NOT change. Dennis Kucinich and Ron Paul also interested me. I think some Obama supporters are naive. Senator Obama is NOT beyond criticism.

[robertwienerrocks]

Let me assure you that no one on that ticket, or in this country, wants a war with Pakistan. Pakistan is still cnsidered an ally of the U.S..Senator Obama was referring to the possibility of having to cross the Pakistani border to apprehend or kill dangerous terrorists if necessary. Not to engage any Pakistani military.

[Slorginvader]

The big points I strongly disagree with Barack Obama (and McCain) is Gay Marriage, The Military Budget, Nuclear Energy, and The War in Afghanistan...

I like Kucinich to yeah, but Obama is still the lesser of the two evils, we won't survive another 4 years of the same...

[darkstar4589]

I'm John Edwards, and I approve of people cheating on their wives and then being Deadbeat Dads. Deadbeat Dad. Deadbeat Dad.

Oh yeah, you're a Deadbeat Dad.

[yaobone]

i'm darkstar and apparently I think it's worse that John Edwards slept with another woman than I think it is that many fathers have lost their children because of George Bush's dishonesty concerning Iraq. Priorities?

[Slorginvader]

Hahaha +1

[dbstooge]

It's great when you see dog shit and pig shit come together to make nice democrap pudding for all the stupid uneducated Marxist public school morons to lap up like retarded assholes.

[GBS1043]

And, if you want to go at it, we can put the gloves on and SEE who the better man is!

[travisw88]

You notice Hillary and Barack were speachless while Edwards was speaking? You know why? They knew he was right. Edwards was the best chance we had as a country.

[zJuanserz]

u suck

[travisw88]

Excellent response...

[GBS1043]

C O R R E C T ! ! !

[warhold2000]

OO god whyyy??? we need you for the country!!!!! I shift my vote like u told us, america need change, and sorry but I can't vote for the clintons so my second choice is Obama... Love u edwards

[19Einstein89]

hey as long as its a democrat

[xsxIBMXxsx]

[sexybrowneyezSC]

i feel ya EDWARDS! all the bickering and arguing aint helping SHIT 4 the millions blacks, whites that r JOBLESS,HOMELESS, DONT HAVE MEDICAL CARE etc... TELL EM EDWARDS UR A SEXY BEAST!

[daderone]

I'm voting for you in Florida tomorrow and when i do know that it is me screaming

I'm Mad As Hell and I'm Not Gonna Take It Anymore!

Guess what? A lot of us are gonna go vote tomorrow 4 you

Florida loves you John Edwards!

G-d Bless You!

[Tralman1965]

Edwards needs to drop out. He has about as much of a chance as Ron Paul does in winning. Zero!

[aaronbmartin]

You do realize that he has been getting about 5-10 times as many votes as Paul or Guliani or Thompson etc. I agree that he is not burning it up like Obama, but he got more votes in SC than Romney, Guliani, and Paul combined. He can't and won't walk out on that kind of support. Why don't you join Him and Me by voting for him.

[lrlbox21]

cant even win his home state.....get out you fraud

[adeptusarts]

Mr Edwards would probably go to bat for the majoritys' best interest!!!!

RP2008

[aaronbmartin]

Yes, Yes he would. Paul really doesn't have much of a chance, how about your vote for Edwards.

[VendettaVV]

how many children can we get healthcare with ur $400 dollar haircuts?

[Smu2]

Um, 0? With an amount like 400 million being chump change in Washington, you're talking about an infinitesimal amount. Or were you just trying to be funny...

[aaronbmartin]

He can spend his own money on what ever he likes, can't he? How many children can we get healthcare with Bushes Trillion dollar War?

[micsc50]

I throught america is the land of the free not free loaders. Does Edwards think that the taxpayers are supposed to pay for college educations and health care. Next thing you know its going to be taxpayer funded hair care. Of course in his mind the factory worker is worth more than the owner.

[Santana2163]

And was wrong with the factory worker being worth more than the owner? People talk about it's all about the customers, but without the workers, what would you have?

[micsc50]

Yes, but without the owner there would be no factory. So I will have to disagree with the socalist John Edwards. remember only his hairdresser knows for sure.

[FredFredBurger53]

Yes But if there is then no factory worker there is no factory but there is also the side of no factory owner no factory, but there is also this if the factory owner wants to make money he needs the factory worker w/o the worker the bougoisises are nothing, the workers can get along life with other jobs he doesnt need the owner to live

[micsc50]

But then the factory worker elects a union to keep his job for him. He becomes a lazy son of a factory worker and votes democRAT then next thing you know America is taken over by the muslim extremist. The factory workers are so lazy the muslims chop their heads off. CASE CLOSED for AMERICA.

[micsc50]

Then the factory workers join a union to keep their jobs for them. They become lazy and non productive. The factory goes bankrupt. They vote democrat and elect a democrat president. The muslim extremist take the country over because the democrats have done away with all guns and the military. AMERICA IS TOAST

[Santana2163]

So you think America's toast if we have a democrat for president? You are very ignorant if you think that...

[micsc50]

The democRATs want big government. The more government the less freedom. The government does nothing right. They will fuck up health care. The democRATS are anti-gun so there goes the second amendment. We won't even be able to defend ourselves when the democRATs take our guns away. They will give America away for political corectness. It sounds far fetched but could happen with democRATs in control of this country.

[Santana2163]

Okay and look at the alternative: what has the republicans done right in the past 8 years? It's time for a change...

[micsc50]

At least they have protected us from the terrorist that have sworn to kill us. We lost 3000 on 9/11 because of slick willy's failure to go after them and the dumbing down of our intelligence agencies. The federal government is not supposed to be a givaway program it is supposed to protect us not give us things like heathcare, foodstamps etc. Your right its time for a change the problem is you better know what your getting before you vote for it.

[Santana2163]

Okay let me try to understand: You're saying that Bush is protecting Americans from terrorists? Bush actually is increasing the number of terrorists and he made it easier for Al-Qaida to recruit people. AMerica is seen as bullies now because we always stick our nose in other people's business.

As for 9/11, wasn't Bush in office for 2 years when that went down? Yes (so he's slick willy). Also the government was also warned about a possible hijacking on that day too but they did nothing.

[Santana2163]

As for health care the GOVERNMENT IS suppose to give health care. You ever see the movie SICKO? It showed how U.S. soldiers fighting in this meaningless war get injured and the government doesn't give them any health care. These soldiers had to go to CANADA, who have UNIVERSAL health care. DO we have that? No. Can everybody in AMERICA afford health care? No.

The republicans spent 8 years fuckin this country up, sending it into recession. Now it's time for people like Ron Paul or Barack Obama.

[micsc50]

Slick Willie fucked it up for 8 years before Bush. His refusal to confront terrorism led to 9/11. The adm. that really fuck things up was the Carter adm. when they deposed the shaw of Iran putting the terrorist mullahs in control of that country. Most of the terrorist groups were born from this alone. You want more of the democRATs? Ron Paul doesn't have a snow balls chance in hell of being elected and Obama is a marxist. The univertsal health care in Canada is terrible. Get informed.

[Santana2163]

Okay parts of Canada's universal health care is fucked up but SOME parts are BETTER than America's, YOU NEED TO GET INFORMED. I give you that about the Carter admin. but Bill Clinton fucked up for 8 years? WTf, what I know is that he had clean up duty from the President before him and he helped us out of the debt we owed other countries. As for me wanting democrats so what? You see how Bush fucked things up!!! He made the rich, richer and the poor, poorer with the taxes he made for starters!!!

[micsc50]

The rich were just as rich when Clinton was in office. You don't know what the fuck you are talking about. Go ahead and vote for these socialist's. You will see the poor get poorer and the rich will still be rich. Who in the fuckin hell do you think is going to pay for this fucked up health care they are proposing ? I gaurantee it won't be the rich.

[travisw88]

You're right, the rich were just as rich with Clinton but the less fortunate at least had a fighting chance.

[19Einstein89]

amen

[19Einstein89]

you are totally mistaken my friend if you think democrats will fuck up this country you dont deserve to be here. democrats will better the economy and the will help people get health care

[micsc50]

The democRATs always fuck the country up. JFK = Vietnam War. Jimmy Carter deposed the shaw of Iran putting the terrorist in charge. Bill Clinton failed to confront terrorism = World Trade center bombings, Towers bombings and USS Cole bombing. Clinton failed to hold Sadaam to his resolutions. Case and point YOU ARE WRONG DEAD WRONG. YOU WANT MORE ???

[travisw88]

Remind me once again who was president during the attack on the World Trade Center bomings. A certain letter, oh yeah, W comes to mind.

[micsc50]

The first attempt was during Clintons adm. If the democRATs take control they will ignore our enemies attacks again and that they gaurantee us.

[GBS1043]

You brain washed fool!

[micsc50]

GBS stands for GOT BRAINS of SHIT!!1043 times

[GBS1043]

Edwards has more intelligence in one neuron than you have in your entire ???

[demandthefacts]

Well, look at FDR. Under his democratic leadership, we were able to get through the Great Depression without having the country totally destroyed, we were able to win World War II under his leadership to lead America into the war, under his leadership we as Americans succeded in bringing down the world's most evil tyrant and ending genocide in two hemispheres, and if we have a leader who can united us like that once more, Democrat or Republican, than we will once again be able to succeed!

[micsc50]

The democRAT party today is nothing like the old democRATs. They are leftwing liberal now as compared to the old more center democRATs. Back then the democRATs believed in protecting us from the enemy now they want to cut and run. If you think the modern day democRATs are the same as the old you need to read up on your history.

[AgarHeaven]

Please, if you are going to debate politics, grow up, if you could learn anything from this video, then let that be it. Democrat or republican, it doesn't matter what you think about the war, all that matters is that it happened, and something needs to be done. I don't think that anyone is running, they just have different ideas on how to settle the issue at hand.

[micsc50]

Debating politics is what this is all about. We need to win the war not come home in defeat. The majority of democRATs voted in favor of going to war and now they wan't to turn tail and run for political purposes only. If this happens the terrorist and Iran will slaughter those people for possesion of that oil rich country. Do you want that? If you do you need to grow up.

[GBS1043]

Show your ignorance a little more. It's ignorant people like YOU who voted for the Bush regime, that have caused the mess we are in now. So, my man (if you are one), you have no right to comment on anything, because YOU have caused the problems we face today PERIOD.. By the way, I would take that Bush-Cheney bumper sticker off your car. Never know what that may bring you...

[micsc50]

Threaten me on the internet is the only way you will ever get a away with it. It just shows you can't deal with the truth. You can't debate so you come bach and spew your HATE !

[GBS1043]

Answer this truthfully. What is the highest level of education you have attained?

[micsc50]

You are doing what liberals always do.You can't debate because you lose everytime so you resort to insults. You suffer from Bush deraingement syndrome go to the vet and get a shot.

[GBS1043]

What's to debate? Bush lied about WMD and almost everything else. He did it in order to establish an "oil procurment base" in the Middle East. He got that, but what the dummie didn't realize is that if we had spent the same amount of money on alternatives, we could have been off oil RIGHT NOW! And, we will still have to get off oil. So, all of that destruction was for nothing. BILLIONS down the drain, 7,000 Americans killed. And you want to debate? Please tell me what you want to debate about?

[micsc50]

You are an uneducated fool. We don't get oil from Iraq and very little from the middle east. Most of our oil comes from Mexico and Venezualia. Oil is the cheapest form of energy there is at this time. Your buddy Bill Clinton ,Al Gore , John Kerry, Hitlery, The New York Times, John Edwards and most of the democRAT party all said Sadaam had WMD's. Get your shit for brains head out of your ass. Your democRAT talking points aren't working. Why don't you read and get off CNN.

[GBS1043]

You did not answer my question. Simply put, what is the highest level of education that you have obtained? That is a fair question. Even Bush (attended?) Yale. I would say that he graduated, but the only reason that he received a diploma is that his daddy donated three million to the school. Check it out. Read, don't listen to your "brain washers" at the RNC.

[dbstooge]

He didn't lie when he said you fuck your mother asshole.

[19Einstein89]

i totally agree with you we need a democrat to get our economy back on track

[mrbengal]

Why vote for who you hate less? It's going to be McCain vs Clinton and neither of them will change a damn thing. They'll both spend us into a worse economy with a wider gap between rich and poor and sign more global trade agreements that send our jobs overseas. Look for Ron Paul to go 3rd party and let's take this country back!

[patriciaredstone]

I find this title offensive. It continues the old paternal idea that women and blacks are children and the white guy is the "grown up" who has to protect them from themselves.

[ishmaeldaro]

Oh come on! That's not the message at all.

Edwards, usually the most combative one, actually did look like the grown up in the debate. And I really don't think the ad uses gender and race to make its point since the candidates did it themselves.

[Smu2]

Do you actually believe thats the message or upon reflection can you acknowledge you're just twisting it to be what you want it to be.

[got2liv4him]

All the demo's are the same, Obama attacks Hillary, Hillary attacks Obama, Edwards attacks them both... the only problem is on substantive issues they are all pretty much the same! It has become a personality contest between a black man, a women, and a self-named "have."

[societysucks17]

is it just me or that sounded more staged then a esisode of a all my children

[bigge525]

I like Edwards to, but I love how his people

think he's so pious also. John Edwards was a

big supporter of the Iraq war and said this

many times on Fox noise channel. Also he is

a parter in one of the biggest HEDGE FUNDS

that just helped crush our economy. John is

awesome, but i'm sick of his people acting

like he's completely clean....

[cmpunc22]

it does matter who we nominate and yes the repupblicans are going down i feel that edwards cares more for our country than obama and clinton

[StandtoRise6]

Zing! Go John Go!

[uberwolf420]

Bow chicka wow wow

[joepod]

Preach it.

[ikfb661]

Nice One!

[HaleyMary]

Go John.

[ShortbusMooner]

Little f'n kids.

[spokospokospoko]

I'm a huge Edwards supporter, but not wild about this ad. It allows him to get those two negative comments (one about Hillary's past, and one about Obama's) some airplay, while still claiming that he's not the one saying it. Not sure how else to do this commercial, though, I guess. You had to see what they were bickering about.

I disagree with theaprilhare, though--I think John's tone was perfect, actually, especially if you listen to his comment in full (sad it couldn't be included here).

[daderone]

i have to disagree...i think it is absolutely neccessary and a great...the best ad yet...i actually see it as doing everybody a favor who missed the ridiculous debate and those who didn't hear Edwards take the house.

Perhaps it could be matched w/ a commercial focusing more on everything else John said from the debate...like leading on every issue. This moment right here was a moment of clarity 4 American voters i think.

[theaprilhare]

Am I the only one who thought Edwards's interjection seemed a little sanctimonious?

[Rantandreason]

I think he was right on the money because that is the point. Too many people are in politics for their own gain and it sure would be nice to have someone who wants to be in that position because they want to actually change something.

[xsxIBMXxsx]

yeaaaaaaaa omg edwadrs yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa­aaaaa vote edwards

[daderone]

Tell your friends & family in SC. America needs u.We really do.We need the Native Son.I'll put everything i can into making it happen & am willing to fight with every fiber in my body for a better America.Not the bickering, but sticking up 4 our people, democracy,constitution,country & party.

Florida loves you John Edwards.

God Bless you!

VOTE.Donate.Spread The Word.

I just donated $200 =) in addition. Just a worker and a student. A Floridian, American, Progressive, Democrat.

[terraceterra]

Excellent commercial! Love ya John Edwards.

[cwall2006]

Great ad, why do I not see it on T.V.?

[daderone]

make a small donation...t.v is owned by the people who want least to face John Edwards. They charge an arm and a leg for avestising...i'm not saying its not on. I'm saying lets make sure it goes on national t.v. now!

I just donated $200 today like i said..I so i'm going around and telling people cuz thats a lot of money for me, Wish i had a $2,000 to give. I would. Before i donated small amounts and bought a couple signs, a hat, a shirt, a bag 4 my girl. this is big 4 me..nebody got $5?

[jim7171a]

Election reform: In the next contract when the PUBLIC airwaves are LEASED, then add in this: FREE TV/Radio commercials for candidates that get XXX signatures blah blah...bottom line is FREE AIRTIME. The public owns the airwaves, not the broadcasters. WE SHOULD DICTATE TERMS!

[cwall2006]

I did donate yesterday and his donation box is also located on my myspace page. Maybe it will make to national T.V., thanks for answer to my question. Edwards 2008

[chazzadams]

Wow. Good ad.

[justin1o0]

Denis dropped out Edwards 2008!

[daderone]

sad but true...i met Dennis Kucinich when i heard all the candidates speak probably over a year ago now. I got to ask him a question while he was on stage and commended him then, after and now for being one of the most honest politicians i've ever met/heard in my life. I'm so very glad Dennis Kucinich ran.

I hope his supporters and others who respect him really consider Edwards. As a progressive student/working Democrat I'll tell u. UNITE HERE. even Nader said it.

[nadeau1064]

YES! Go get 'em, John!

[onebluestone]

it's pretty easy to act mature and all when the heat is not on you.

[lol998]

You saw the debate. Clinton and Obama were really going low in their attacks. It was the ugliest debate on either side this election.

[TopherLloyd0]

Im a Republican and thought Edwards won the debate because he was actually debating and not screaming, "Dad, he crossed the line and is on my side!" Thanks seantor for actually acting like a prediential candidate, I hope you do well in S.C.

[KimKinMIA]

If only Edwards could team up with Gore - what a team they would make. Edwards 2008 -

[VetOrDie]

The dream team of ALL time. ....oh god that would be ...... just great. perfect even. But a John / Barack ticket wouldn't be to bad. Keeping Hillary in here Congress seat and keeping that vote Dem and  Dem power... plus giving Barack what he needs to take over the white house in 8.

[classic14rider]

Nice contrast.

[StirlingMclaughlin]

Way to show you are above petty attacks

by repeating petty attacks! Very slick...

[lol998]

He's showing a big difference between him and them. They both went really low in that dirty debate. Edwards did not.

[habs1usa]

Obama/Edwards '08!

[strategyminded]

Maybe you all will finally understand that Obama doesn't have any chance of winning a General Election after you nominate him and lose like Mondale.

[Nominay]

You're wrong - it's that Obama has no chance to win against Clinton. Clinton can just as easily go down in defeat in November too.

[auntbecky]

Guys, it doesn't matter who we nominate. (Though I hope and pray it's John Edwards.) We're still gonna kick Republican butt.

[Nominay]

Oh, I think it does matter who we nominate.

[ishmaeldaro]

I think Clinton could easily lose the election. Republicans and many Dems dislike the Clintons too much.

[auntbecky]

Reverse that and you got me.

[jedreport]

Awesome ad! Way to go!

Edwards is fighting for what matters!
