5. ROFLMAO!

Too true. Edwards supporters cry wolf when people say there are only 2 candidates, but the Edheads do the same thing themselves.

6. Clinton votes moved to Edwards?

Zogby's final poll had Obama at 41%, and Clinton way back at 26%. According to Zogby, Clinton doesn't have a prayer in SC.

12. It may be saying that.

I think Edwards support is a broad mixture of progressives, working class, and conservatives. I think half of his voters would go to Obama and half to Clinton, if he were not in the race. It depends on the state, and other factors. This is why I say to Obama supporters, not to wish for Edwards to step out of the race, because it's not so clear who it would benefit.

I'd like to go all the way to the convention and it looks like Edwards is gaining. Perhaps the economy getting worse is helping his populist message get traction.

11. In a way this is scary because it looks like it is moving

from one white candidate to the other white candidate.

I hope I am wrong.

14. Maybe not...he got good press (when mentioned) about the debate...

and he did shine in that debate! The other two looked petty....
