Since the New Hampshire primary, Mrs. Clinton has reached out to Mr. Edwards aggressively, through telephone calls and private meetings. Mr. Obama has spent far less time courting Mr. Edwards, according to people familiar with the talks.

No endorsement before Tuesday. "I will be meeting with each of them... there is no chance it will happen (any endorsement) before Tuesday, or even after... "

As for his endorsement plans, they remain unclear. His representatives had been reaching out to Obama's high command for weeks, but I am told that they rebuffed him. A top aide to Edwards cautioned not to assume that Edwards would endorse Obama. "He's gained a lot of respect for Hillary, for her toughness in all that she has been through." That could just be a negotiating ploy on Edwards's part. We'll see.

4. Don't do it John

5. This is interesting indeed, but it conflicts with the

ABC headlines news, which had Edwards making innuendos to wards Obama.

6. I didn't hear him say any thing about chatting with them

He said he would wouldn't endorse either, Obama was too inexperienced and don't remember what he said about Hillary, Obama isn't going to pick up many of Johns supporters.. he can forget the White men, since the smart racist words by his wife and himself, and then tried to tie racism on Clinton, never going to float any ones boat.

7. They're both courting Edwards, no doubt. These journalists are speculating because they can.

And, because they're biased.

8. Make JE head of FEMA -

make it cabinet level job. Or put him in charge of a Special Commission to investigate contract fraud and compliance. Give him a giant budget to work with.
