8. I don't think he had any viable support in Iowa
considering he was pretty much stepped over and snubbed by the Democratic Party nabobs in Iowa. He probably didn't have enough votes to do Edwards any harm. I think he endorsed Obama to send Edwards a message about that little conversation a few months ago that Edwards and Clinton had when they thought the microphone was off about eliminating the fringe candidates from the debates. Dennis knew it wouldn't cut into Edward's votes but that it would get his attention. I supposed we will never know who would have voted for Dennis in Iowa, but I don't think it would have even been 1% considering how blatantly he was ignored there by the Democratic Party.
