John Edwards on David Letterman Jan. 22, 2008

[RealTime88]

And yes he would have been a great president!!

[RealTime88]

So do I. Bright guy, charming and bold.

[eastbay808808]

I still love John Edwards, he's extremely charming!

[jlr41]

Think about it: At the time this show was taped, both of these dudes were cheating on their wives.

[jasontman36]

Just Another fake ass loser politician!

[Castaril]

he would spend all the tax dollars on his haircuts

[fedeman2]

what a shame he did so poorly. he would've been a great president.

[mjccmc82]

@fedeman2 he has a genius IQ

[truthenforcer]

Edwards is REJECTED! And he's dropping out of the race. HAHAHAHAHA

I told you all! LOSERS! All Of you who supported him. HAHAHAHAHA

[brklynmatt]

If you vote for him now, you are just wasting your vote.

[earthlvr]

1,637 delegates to go. Even if one dem won every state, it's going to be a brokered convention, and after the first vote, delegates can go to other candidates. It's not sure thing until the final vote at the convention.

[k3304]

Edwards placed 3rd in his own state of SC

game over !!

[ledboblen1]

Sorry everyone, but Edwards has no realistic chance to become pres. And just to make sure I offend everyone here, neither does Ron Paul :P

BTW hwebb, John McCain is the presidential hopful with the most interest in veteran care, as long as ur saying that Republicans don't care about veterans.

[integral]

Sounds like you're offering one example (McCain) to prove a point when any small bit of research will show that in general Republicans have gone out of their way to cut veterans benefits. Not to mention putting our soldiers in harms way in an unnecessary war in the first place.

[ledboblen1]

Now, now. I didn't say I support all Republicans. I simply stated the fact that not ALL republicans hate veterans. And with regards to small bits of research, anyone could find out that we are still in a war the the democratically controlled congress has done nothing to get us out of. They just complain and promise to throw the president REALLY dirty looks every time they see him. Bravo, democrats, for pandering just like the best of the republicans (Romney).

[KimKinMIA]

Edwards is the best hope for America!

[hwebb5454]

I hate republicans and their "better than thou" mentality. Edwards is THE best candidate for president and at least he actually cares about veterans of this country. I don't think you could say te same of President bush or Bill O'fuckhead

[micsc50]

Edwards is a loser. His best bet is to get VP.under puff the magic negro or Hitlery. The problem is there is not enough room in the white house for all his hair dressers.They not only do his hair dressers but they are part time ambuance chasers and political advisers.

[integral]

Amazing how one person can put so many inane, racist, and absurd comments into one paragraph. Nice work, sir.

[micsc50]

I call a black man a negro and that makes me a racist? Or maybe calling Edwards a ambulance chaser makes me a racist. I do know one thing you are a stupid son of a bitch. You are to dumb to vote.

[integral]

Well, this pretty much tells the world everything it needs to know about you. You use Limbaugh's "magic negro" which makes you a likely mindless ditto-head. And rather than talk issues, you run on the Fox Noise route of trash talking about trial lawyers and his hair. I won't suggest you grow up, as that ain't likely, but try to think for yourself once in a while. And, yeah, "magic negro" pretty much puts you in the racist column.

[micsc50]

I hate liberal fags like you and Edwards more.

[integral]

Gee, good comeback. Touche. You got me that time.  Put me in my place. You win. Love that succinet, well-composed retort. Ouch.

[aow4321]

dont let him represent the republican party, we are more grown up then that.

[babsamatic]

John Edwards for President!! YEAH!! Send him money!!! He is not taking the big bucks from corporations like the other 2 Dems are! He is relying on us little people to get him elected!

GO JOHN! All the way!

[yankir]

Great guy!! he must be the president!.

[pigwank]

I prefer Edwards get the democratic nomination over the other two. I hope ppl see Hilary/Obama in their true skin from all that bickering.

[mrjerkoffthe3rd]

I think this guy is a fraud and Letterman is a moron all around

[GodGouken]

he seems like a great honest guy i wish he would win but sadly i know he wont

[freedomsadvocate07]

If you want to really understand where John Edwards stands on the issues, you have to watch "Freedom to Fascism" on google video.

Here's the link:

[inesah]

I think he's the only truly honest candidate!

[philly1537]

true

[crsfred]

you've got to be kidding.

[crsfred]

Damn, last comment went to the wrong place. Edwards is a total phoney, and Letterman is a typical show biz idiot.

[NutFreeZone]

"I was trying to represent the grown-up wing of the Democratic party." Priceless!

[AnotherUselessNick]

n1, pretty entertaining!

[pbsandcspanwatchit]

Priceless, Dave "Bill Orieley does'nt care much for the truth" John "much of what he says is CRAP" totally refreshing ,honest,smart, witty enough to match Dave, he made Dave laugh the hardest I have EVER seen, when Dave is listing Ophra's belovedness, and that is saying something for wit. He is standing on the same issues he did in 04, no flip flopping, except when Dave musses his hair, PRICELESS!!!!! We could do worse for Prez. a lot worse!!!!!!

[JHinWA]

Letterman has a geniune point sadly. The Jerry Springer angle is very much more entertaining to people. Bickering, fighting, etc. I've heard people comment that earlier debates, that lack conflicts, with pure substance were "boring"

[Kitana818]

He seems such a nice guy. I don't know much about hin, but he doesn't look fake.

[camila447]

hahaha love the hair part.

[ceesiren2]

I just hope America wakes up and realizes corporations don't give up power and advantages because we ask nice. We need a fighter like Edwards... someone who came up from very middle class roots by triumphing over huge corporations defending their own greedy interests. Don't give up, John!

[culturewatcher]

I think at this point John is running for VP.

Hillary had a 15 minute "chat" with John before the last debate. If you notice John pretty much left Hillary alone. You can tell Dave is a HILLBOT by the tone of his interview.

[007cuty]

I'm hope Edwards comes out winning some of teir votes over the pettiness of th eother two.

[solgarcia]

Would LOVE to see this guy winning.

[integral]

I'd love to see him running and winning too, but (and godnose I'm trying to rein in my cynical side) after the last seven years, I don't know if the American people deserve Edwards. They fell for and bought Bush/Cheney twice. What does that say about the American electorate?

[Strawberryfairy285]

It's great he finally gets a littl' more relaxed and funny - like it ;)

Edwards 08 !!!

[swankrecords]

Edwards' face looks freshly waxed. Colgate smile.

Vote Dr. Ron Paul for president!
