Why hasn't Kerry come out for Edwards?
I thought it was Edwards that was miffed at Kerry, not the other way around. Seems like he would be supporting him.

3. Probably his wife doesn't want him to -
not after the way Elizabeth snarked on Teresa in her book.

4. Kerry is a smart guy
He wouldn't throw away his endorsement on a sure loser like Edwards.

Also, I'm sure Kerry has kicked himself for choosing Edwards in the first place as a vp, which didn't help him at all.

Kerry will of course be endorsing Hillary after she wins.

6. How do we know that he wants Edwards?
afterall in 2004 Al Gore didn't support his running mate--he endorsed Howard Dean.

10. didn't edwards say, (or maybe it was wife elizabeth who said it)
that he/she was disappointed and surprised in kerry's buckling to bush's win without even waiting for all the vote counts, or demanding the recound that he had promised.

Nothing lost there. I would be willing to bet that edwards possibly feels betrayed by kerry in their campaign, that he probably knows more about kerry than any of us do, and that ... thank but no thank you. don't need your kind of support this time around.

of course, i could be mistaken.

11. I'm not saying he will come out in his favor - but i AM SAYING
Mr. Kerry is never on time with anything, if I get his emails on issues, it's always on things that are long in the hopper and way overdue. In other words, the endorsement could still trail in.
