59. I think they fear more his liklihood of creating a brokered convention...
... than himself being nominated. When many of us here were seeing that it was a very clear strategy and very likely if he could get 20% or so of the remaining delegates, it would likely put the convention in a state that the corporatocracy couldn't control things the way they wanted.

And if Edwards got through Super Tuesday with enough votes, when it was over, a brokered convention could be very likely then.

I'm not saying that either of the other two campaigns "threatened him". It's just like someone saying that Hillary didn't mess with the New Hampshire voting machines. It likely is another entity with a vested interest in one of these two winning (aka corporate entities of some sort).
