Dear John

So I couldn't not mention that I am saddened by John Edwards resignation of candidacy for President. He is a good man. In spite of his litigating ways, he brought a level of integrity to the race that I didn't see in any of the other candidates. I am sure he is withholding his support of either of the frontrunners so as to leave all doors open in terms of running mate possibilities. And more power to him. My dream might be a Clinton/Edwards administration with Joe Biden as Secretary of State. Too much old Washington? Maybe I am naïve. Maybe its an Obama/Edwards ticket I am wanting. Clearly the confusion hasn't yet lifted. I suppose we should consider ourselves lucky that we have excellent choices to make. We are in such a much better position now than 4 years ago and even, actually 8. All I know is that my 10 year old daughter wants to hear Hillary Clinton speak. She is asking to go to a rally. Could I be more proud?

In closing, I offer congratulations to John for a campaign well run, for showing us the passion and courage to attempt to extract us from the horrific mess Shrub has so arrogantly gotten us into. Thank you, Mr. Edwards. We hope to be seeing much more of you soon.
