Maybe JE will come in First in New Hampshire!
I mean, NH voters like to be contrary. They don't like to be told what the result is going to look like before they voted.

It is a possibility!

I wouldn't be surprised.

Although I am an Obama supporter who doesn't care for JE, that would be an interesting development.

1. IF that happened,

the pundits would say it was a fluke, and continue on with the Clinton Obama Show.

:P

8. Can you give me a reliable link for the superdelegate count?
I've seen some as high as 161, others at 120. I ask because you have numbers in your sig line. Thanks.

3. That would be terrible news on Wall Street. Anti-corporate/populist rhetoric scares them.
And for that reason alone, I hope more populists will run as Democrats in the future.

11. The DOW dropped 238 points today.
Could that be an indication that Edwards is going to win? ;)

7. I think we all know that isn't going to happen :-) But I truly thank
you for the little glimmer of hope ! Even tho, as HRC tells us, it isn't nice to give people False Hope ! :-)

I have a theory about JE and Obama, one that's been floating around in my warped head for awhile now. And it has nothing to do with a VP spot for John either. But look at how much cover he's been giving Obama.. how he stuck up for him at the debates, and how they've been fairly mutually cordial to each other. Edwards will voice a style difference every now and then, but no attacks.. nothing like what HRC has done to Obama. I think Edwards will stay in this race to the end and continue to provide that cover for Obama, and I think part of it is because he knows the status quo has to change.. even if its an Obama Wave that brings it in. Naieve? Maybe.. but that's how I like to think about it.
