Reply #31: What about the paragraph that says Kerry's own performance in 2004 devalued his own stock? [View All]

This one, from the same article:

What's Kerry's endorsement worth? The significance of these things with voters tend to be overplayed, and Kerry's own performance in 2004 has devalued his stock with the Democratic Party. But it does lend some establishment cred to the Obama operation. And Kerry still has the remnants of an organization in the primary states, as well as an enormous e-mail list.

I don't think Kerry's endorsement of Obama is that huge a setback for Edwards, or for Hillary either, even if she did hope for it. If anything it was payback, not a setback for Edwards, and I doubt that Edwards is all that concerned over it, nor would he have expected to get it.
