Edwards “Big Decision”

In a note to his e-mail list entitled "The big decision," John Edwards asked his internet community Saturday to rally for his all-but-announced campaign. Supporters are asked to e-mail Edwards at a new domain -- "changeforamerica.com" -- instead of the address he's been using for the past few years, OneAmericaCommittee.com.

The Web site for Ready To Change America includes a "town hall" style tour schedule across the presidential primary states. Edwards will head to Des Moines, IA, on 12/28, Portsmouth, NH and Reno, NV on 12/29, West Columbia, SC and Chapel Hill, NC on 12/30. Although many of those events were already publicized by local state parties, this is the first attributed announcement that links all the appearances together.

Some excerpts from Edwards "big decision" e-mail:

"Now, we have a big decision to make -- and I do mean we. I'm getting ready to take this effort to the next level - to bring Americans together in all fifty states to tackle the big challenges facing our country, from poverty and lack of health care, to energy and global warming...

"But this is our effort, and we can only succeed if we're all in it together. So before I make a final decision, I need to hear from you: Are you ready? If you're ready to take this to the next level, and launch a renewed national effort to change America, send me a note and let me know: JohnEdwards@readytochangeamerica.com...

"I can't promise you where this will ultimately lead. But I can promise you this: if you're on board, we'll launch a renewed commitment to change our country from the bottom up... Stay tuned: I'll let you know what we decide early next week."
