I like John Edwards. He strikes me as an honest, hard-working, passionate guy. The Democratic Presidential nomination didn't look like it would be his in 2008 so he listened to the American people and gracefully stepped aside. His constituents -- some equally solid and hard-working folk -- are probably waiting for his next moment, a sign as to which way he'll go. I get that. And that's why it's so surprising to me that his next moment has yet to come.

What is John Edwards waiting for? The Democratic race needs to be decided NOW, before the divisions in the party sink its hopes in the November election. I'm sure that's why Bill Richardson stepped up and endorsed Barack Obama NOW. We need to get this thing decided and move forward.

John Edwards has the ear of many -- many, in fact, who were looking for CHANGE. He is all about helping regular folks, not the fat cats in D.C. He is, in fact, someone who represented the change that Barack Obama represents, though it's Obama's good fortune to be the better messenger.

John Edwards' next moment needs to be NOW. He needs to step forward and endorse Barack Obama as the next President of the United States of America. His words to that end would go a long way in Pennsylvania and across America. Now is the time, Mr. Edwards. We're waiting -- and listening.
