Edwards Goes For Obama
WHEN WILL HILLARY DROP OUT?
FITSNews – May 15, 2008 – South Carolina native and former N.C. Senator John Edwards has officially thrown his support (and his flapping arms) behind Barack Obama’s presidential campaign.
From the LA Times:
The announcement was a blow to Hillary Rodham Clinton, whose bid for the Democratic nomination appears all but lost, and brought Obama a welcome distraction from his landslide defeat Tuesday in the West Virginia primary … The 41-percentage-point rout sparked new questions about his persistent troubles appealing to white, blue-collar voters, even if it did little to boost Clinton’s prospects. In Edwards, Obama picked up the support of a former presidential candidate who had emphasized his roots as the son of a mill worker and aimed his pitch at working-class voters.
You know, as much as we absolutely can’t stand John Edwards and his phoney, rich boy socialism … we might actually take his advice over that of the entire state of West Virginia.
What’s interesting here is not necessarily what this does for Hillary Clinton’s nonexistent presidential prospects, but what it does for her chances at securing the second spot on the ticket.
Can anybody say Obama-Edwards?

You are exactly right…. Socialists here they come…. 2 people that are so left you can’t see them and yet Democrats are tripping all over themselves to nominate a black candidate….
This is as bad a Gov Sandford appointing every Black he can get his hands on because he feels guilty….
People think this will ease race relations….Just wait…. the one’s that think they are “entitled” to something for nothing will be standing in line
