What Edwards needs and Clinton has

[Adelante]

National Journal ranks Edwards as third in likelihood of winning nationally, Clinton first and Obama second, with this reasoning.

The biggest hurdle in Edwards' way? It's Clinton, not Obama. Edwards and Clinton share more supporters than Edwards and Obama. Edwards is hoping for the blue-collar, older Dem support. That's the heart and soul of Clinton's support.

What do you think? Is it Obama holding Edwards back? Or is it Clinton?

1. I think if thats right I hope edwards stays in this thing till the end

2. the politically smart move for Edwards would be to go after Obama...

..but instead, he's gone after Clinton.

3. I think it's the media more than anything. nt

4. I agree with this. Look at the tracking charts.

If you look at them, Edwards rises and Clinton drops at the same time, and vice versa. Edwards needs to go after Hillary. It benefits him the most. Obama does not need to go after Hillary as much.

5. That makes it sound like Hillary's prime asset is the fortuity of being married to Bill because

that's the source of her blue-collar, older Dem support.
