Edwards, Obama gain popularity on tours
RALEIGH, N.C. - When introducing former vice presidential candidate
John Edwards at a book signing this week, a family friend mentioned a bumper sticker she'd seen around town: "Edwards-Obama." The giddy audience roared with approval.


Both Edwards and Illinois Sen. Barack Obama insist they have yet to decide whether they are running for president, but both are drawing big crowds as they follow the modern script of a White House candidate and head out on nationwide book tours. The self-promoting promenades give both an excuse to tour early 2008 primary states — without having to publicly commit to a campaign.

1. wanted to endorse this
before the inevitable happens to this thread.

Such a ticket would feel like the first stirrings of an intelligence and just future.

3. Yuka! Yucka! Yucka!
Please, oh please let it not be Edwards. I can handle Obamma, but Edwards would really be the hardest of pills to swallow. He is the most arrogant, egotistical, polished and dishonest candidate that we have to offer.
