John Edwards stole Hillary Clinton's "momentum"

[PresidentObama]

Any momentum from the West Virginia primary is over....

She has no real way to the nomination, but even her big win (which was rather meaningless in the big picture) means absolutely nothing because it's simply overshadowed by the last major endorsement of the campaign. I say this because I doubt Al Gore will endorse, so it seems like Johnny boy will be the last man to endorse. I'm not saying his endorsement means shit to voters, but what it does do is overshadow the good news the Clinton campaign got from last night and it further sends the message it's all but over for the Clinton campaign.

John Edwards didn't deliver the death blow. But he certainly helped to...

I respect and admire Senator Clinton.

But it's so over. Thank you John Edwards for your endorsement.

I'll respectfully let Clinton decide when and if she wants to drop out. She can run as long as she wants to be. If she wants to play Mike Huckabee, let her...

9. Ah, Governor Roy... How we still love you in Colorado!

That man was a great governor. If it hadn't been for term limits, who knows - he might still be in office today!

4. If his 18 released delegates go to Obama this week, then after a

huge, enormous victory for Hillary in WV, she will have netted -7 or -8 pledged delegates this week.

[PresidentObama]

5. Ha. Wouldn't that be funny?

[asjr]

6. No.

[PresidentObama]

7. Yes.

You can't kill momentum that wasn't there in the first place, I guess.

8. He most certainly stole her thunder, and more importantly, her news cycle.

Damned brilliant political maneuvering by the incredible Obama political machine. I have been awestruck by them at every turn in this primary season.

[JTG of the PRB]

10. Does this mean her momentum has officially turned into "Joementum?"

:hide:

[TragedyandHope]

11. John Edwards looks forward to November!

The time for looking backward is over. Onward to the White House!

12. Edward's endorsement means Little or NOTHING.

HRC will continue the FIGHT with support from her SUPER SILENT MAJORITY, until the WH nomination is HERS alone.

[Colobo]

14. Obama is the Democratic nominee. It's over.

[Double T]

15. ONLY in your wishes and dreams.

Open your eyes....it's the 21st century.

[HuffleClaw]

27. sure he did

[Zachstar]

28. Not just for after WV but Kentucky as well.

There is absolutely no excuse anymore for Clinton to remain in this race. She is free to go on but every day from now is just doing damage to her political future.
