Edwards won four delegates today and is alive and well
Despite all the BS that Edwards should quit, he collected four more delegates today while Clinton and Obama won nine each. Here is the delegate count as it stands now. Obama leads with 25, Hillary has 24, and Edwards 18. This is not over by a longshot! Over 2,000 delegates are needed to win.

10. Thanks
All those who keep calling for Edwards to drop out, are just worried that his time will come, when the people hear "his" message they will know who it is that they want to fight for them in D.C., and it won't be Hillary, nor will it be Obama! Hillary was the first "inevitable" nominee, then after Iowa it was Obama, well nobody is "inevitable" and this goes to show it!

This is still a race for the nomination, and I don't look any of them to drop out just because they lose a few primaries.

11. Wondering why the ABC results site only shows gained delegates
of Clinton and Obama, but lists none gained by Edwards?

12. CNN shows him winning four
As I understand it, Democrats have a proportional system for winning delegates and Edwards was above the necessary percentage.

15. I'm an Edwards supporter, but unless something changes
I don't see him winning the nomination.

In fact, it looks like it's Hillary's to lose.
