I am an Edwards 08 person through and through. Iowa and New Hampshire are make or break for Edwards, and with the latest Iowa polls all being in margin of error territory it is basically a 3 way tie in Iowa at the moment.
BUT.......................
But...................
If Edwards doesn't win in Iowa and New Hampshire, Obama will beat Hillary nationally.
This is due to polls from other states showing the numbers Edwards has in other states being better than the margin by which Hillary leads over Obama.
Edwards supporters will switch to Obama in large droves since he is closest to Edwards. Especialy since Hillary stands for everything the majority of Edwards supporters are against.
The only thing Hillary can hope for is that Edwards doesn't quickly endorse Obama and ask his supporters to switch. Even then, Edwards supporters will switch to Obama in droves.
I love Edwards. I want Edwards to be our president. I would also love an Edwards/ Obama 08 ticket. BUT thinking long term worse case scenario, this Edwards supporter gladly will support Obama.
It is very unlikely Hillary will ever be our nominee which makes this liberal dem very happy.
