If John Edwards endorses Hillary Clinton.......
you fill in the blank..

I would actually be more surprised if he endorsed Barack Obama. I know there are alot of Edwards lovers on DU. I never could connect with him though.

18. Edwards was all about running a clean campaign.
He wanted to end the distractions and get to the issues.

I really don't see that jiving with Clinton's approach to campaigning.

More talk of the "inevitable" Edwards endorsement that will save the Clinton campaign.

15. Why? He doesn't have to.. He has endorsed the ideas that they both love
to use.. Actually, I'd wish either one of them would use more. Its stupid to endorse..

19. I love Edwards take on our health care crisis, and how he wants
to provide health care for everyone. But he has many other issues that are just as important-eradicating poverty. If Edwards endorses Clinton that would be something, but whomever wins is going to get my vote. I will work to make sure a democratic president is elected. And I wish that this would be the most important point that people take to the voting both.

21. he wont endorse

25. IF John Edwards endorses Hillary Clinton, it won't make a bit of difference.
Edited on Thu Apr-17-08 10:31 PM by Spider Jerusalem
Not only will it make no difference, it might even cause her to do *worse* in North Carolina than she is already projected to. Edwards is NOT popular in his home state. An endorsement by him does not help there.

29. If John Edwards endorses Hillary Clinton...
Obama will win North Carolina by more than what he would have if Edwards didn't endorse Hillary.
