Other then whatever amount of delegates Edwards has his endorsement is rather meaningless.
Arguably worth less then Richardsons but definitely not worth more then Richardsons.

So far we have Richardson and Edwards competing for the VP spot, along with the other 280-something superdelegates that have endorsed Obama. Sometimes an endorsement is just and endorsement.

I hope Obama picks either. They are trainwrecks.. almost worse then he is.

The only way Clinton's not supporting Obama is if she pulls a win off.
She's already said publicly multiple times that she will. She's changed her tone and become far less negative.

She cannot make it as an independent candidate and she knows it. So she's going to do what's best for her future and stick by her party's nominee.
She'd be insane not to.

Big woopti-doo I personally look at Edwards as a liability to any candidate. Very much like Joe Lieberman with Gore back in 2000. John Edwards closes his eyes a lot and he reminds me of smug individuals who look down at people. Bill Richardson is way too awkward. He is better served in cabinet position (It’s what he knows). We have to remember people don’t really look at policy positions as much as they would like you to believe. It’s a popularity contest and a smug or awkward person, will be negative in this contest.

I just hope his delegate follow his lead and end this contest that was truly over in febuary!

And, it's perfectly obvious to anyone Edwards is just securing a cabinet position or possible v.p. If clinton was the presumptive nominee, he would have endorsed her.
You and I thought the same exact thing! Edwards and obama knew days if not weeks ago that Edwards was going to endorse him and so they come up with the DAY AFTER Clinton wins big in WV to announce it and it's "just coincidence"? Yeah sure. Obama is nothing but a slick politician playing by all the rules that all politicians have played since time began! He ain't fooling me...he never has! And Edwards...he sees his way clear to another VP ticket and this time he just might actually serve the position...though I doubt it.

I don't really think Edwards seems all that smug. Just weird.
I swear, when he talks it looks like the words coming out of his mouth don't match his lips!
He's a good endorsement, but probably not a good VP as he has all the same weaknesses as Obama and fewer of the strengths.
On the other hand, he is a southerner... but that only seems to work if he's the candidate not the VP (as Kerry found out).

Richardson... I wouldn't call him awkward... at least not for the VP position. He doesn't compose himself well for the media, but he does have a certain appeal.
And is he really any more awkward than Cheney? Come on.

As a gay man, I can honestly say I dont see why people think Edwards is that attractive. He's ok. He's not ugly. But I wouldnt describe him as "hot".

That shampoo ad is awesome...I've never seen that before.

Yeah, it's just terrible that we had votes that mattered in every single state.
Some mattered more than others. That is the problem.

Democrats claim to be for the little people except when it's time to give the little people a voice. Then all of a sudden the Democrat insiders get to speak for the little People.
