John Edwards to endorse Obama!!!!
Anyone that watched Morning Joe could see how obvious his clues were. "I voted for him on Tuesday" and the fact that he and Elizabeth are supporting different candidates. He also said, "Sen Obama is doing fine without my endorsement"

2. I know but it might bring this thing to an end sooner.
It is obvious he is going with the will of the country and N.C. voters.

20. It isn't worthless to everyone
Especially combined with the "endorsement" of Kucinich by deed, it can carry a great deal of weight for people who have felt that thus far Obama has focused too little on poverty issues. If I see that Kucinich and Edwards believe that he will properly address issues important to them, then it will make it easier for someone like me who has remained uncommitted to do more than just vote for him this fall.

4. I heard that - and before that he said "I'll endorse the person I voted for"
so I guess that settles it.

21. I could not care less about what Edwards does
Edited on Fri May-09-08 07:52 AM by high density
I am just tired of him and his PR firm. I've never seen such a washed up do nothing politician get so much attention for no reason.

12. You're right but...
he did come pretty close. He said he wouldn't endorse yet but he said it looked like Obama will be the nominee.

16. John Edwards = Jimmy Carter
They pretty much spelled it out that they would endorse Barack Obama without actually saying those words. Time to get out Hillary.
