This Edwards supporter will caucus in Minnesota for Obama (MN = large delegate total)

[Infinite Hope]

And all the other Edwards supporters I know in this area plan to do the same. If this is the trend across Minnesota, Obama will win in Minnesota which has 88 delegates, tied for the 7th largest total of all states.

1. Glad to hear it

Welcome.

2. The more Edwards' support moves to Obama...

the more I see going that way.

Dems are ready to UNITE already, I think.

3. As an Edwards supporter myself -- who just changed my avatar and

signature line -- I'm thinking about voting in the primary for Obama.

In reading between the lines, and watching him suspend the campaign, and listening to talk radio (love ya, Randi), I'm thinking that Edwards knew that enough supporters would go to Obama that it would allow Obama to take the lead.

Let's test that theory Tuesday.

6. I hope so. Right now, my guess is they'll go 50/50. If Edwards endorses Obama, that'd make it

something like 60/40 or 70/30. I hope he endorses after the debate. I think he's just leaving time to make it look like he didn't work out a deal to become Attorney General. ;) By using the debate, he can help the spin of the debate by saying "Obama, in the debate, won and convinced me....." which turns the media coverage and message following the debate. It also keeps the story from being over-covered by the end of the week, thus necessitating that analysts analyze it into Monday and Tuesday.

7. You know, here in Virginia, when people do mention Hillary, it is something

negative about her or Bill. But, people here speak well of Obama. I do think Edwards supporters will break for Obama. Because, if we wanted a bridge back to the 20th century, why not support Hillary from the beginning?

John and Elizabeth are very clever. There is something afoot, but only time will tell. It's not what it appears.

4. Excellent!

Thanks.

5. Hillary is ahead in the most recent polls

she's up by about 7 points, according to what I heard on MPR the other day.
