27. It says exactly what I said it says, and what the Times and other news organizations
were questioning:

"To discuss with the Edwards campaign what specific sort of support they’d like to see from us"

The fact that they were coordinating about future strategy before the 527 was formed only makes it the sleazier: they loopholed the entire thing by coordinating before the official roll out. C'mon folks, you know if you read this about Hillary you'd be kvelling.
