Do you truly think Obama would be caught up in back and forth if it was him and Edwards....
competing for the front-runner position? Or if it was him and Richardson, or him and Dodd, him and Kucinich?

1. Obama v. Edwards would be more issues driven
Anyone v. anyone else that didn't include Hillary would be issues driven. Its Hillary that wants to run an identity politics campaign. She is the only one machiavellian enough to do so.

2. Not at all! Edwards wanted to take Obama on, on who would be the better
change agent. It would be boring as hell on DU if it was between Obama and Edwards. It's rather depressing the way it's turned out. :cry:

3. Are you blaming Obama's NON-handshake problem on Sen. Clinton?

4. No, not this specific situation, but I'd blame general degration of their relationship
more on Clinton's behavior, rather than Obama's. I think Obama would have got along fine with any other of the candidates.
