Piece on Edwards right now on NPR? The question is why.

[Tweed]

:shrug: He isn't doing anything...

[Kerrytravelers]

1. I think he's keeping himself in the public for a possible future run.

[TomClash]

2. He will run in 2008

[saltpoint]

3. Well, the Center he heads now will commit itself --

-- to economic democracy for those in poverty. That's doing something.

[housewolf]

4. He just started up a poverty center

at North Caroline University (I think that's the location). I guess he intends to do all of his work from there.

[Clark2008]

5. As much as I don't want him to run again, he IS doing something.

He's running a center for poverty.

[ultraist]

6. Edwards is not the type that lets the grass grow under his feet

That's why he became one of the top ten trial attorneys in the country, then US Senator, then a VP candidate.

He's only 51, did you expect him to go out to pasture?

Poverty is going to be a big issue the Democrats focus on. As Dean has been saying, it's time the Democrats start articulating their core values again. Working against poverty is one of our core values.

7. Good, because I'm living in it

and getting worse fast.

[pearl]

8. He's also on with George S on this week tomorrow.
