Poll question: Under the bus with Edwards???
Will the Clinton campaign and their supporters throw Edwards under the bus?

4. What does that mean exactly?
Hillary's current position is tenuous, at best -- as in "she's losing."

I really don't think she's in much of a position to throw anyone not on her own campaign staff "under the bus" at this point.

12. Ah, yes.
I took a peek and it appears that John is now indeed "the enemy." I sure hope they get over it soon.

5. They'll sure try...
But thankfully their influence seems to be waning, so the damage, if any, will likely be minimal.

10. John can handle it, he has practice from all the time he spent under the Obama
supporters' bus.

I give Clinton supporters credit for at least waiting for an actual endorsement before they ran over him.

16. She can't afford to do it and she is no longer feared
After the Judas comment of Richardson, people have gradually grown to not fear the Clinton campaign anymore. Plus, there might be a huge backlash if Hillary turns negative against Obama supporters. The last thing Hillary needs right now is for Edwards to have an excuse of calling her out on her big money interests and not being a fighter for the average American. That would really sting.
