Gracious defeat 

With General Clark's withdrawl from the Presidential race yesterday, I am shifting my support to John Kerry (Didn't you hear? My support carries a lot of weight.). Clark fought a good fight, but with such a late start, he wasn't going to be able to muster the momentum needed to secure the nomination. Kerry seems like the best choice to regain our country from its current dictator.

While I agree with the sentiments of many Democrats that it's time to rally behind a single candidate, I nevertheless appreciate John Edwards's explaination for why he's staying in the race. He said we should have an election, not a coronation. I wish such could be true for Alabama.
