9. The number of current delegates is immaterial
Only two small states are involved. When the numbers of delgates expands exponentially on Super Tueday is when we see the chaff separated from the wheat: if Edwards continues to receive only 15-17% of the vote, he will ultimately receive only 15% or so of the delgates. Simple as that.

Please face reality: short of Clinton and Obama being found in bed together, in flagrante delicto, Edwards is not going to win the nomination. He can, however, be the spoiler--the Nader or Bloomberg--of this nominating procedure. He seems to take some pleasure in doing that.
