I just heard this six minutes ago, so have no opinion on it yet.


On Edit

I'm sorry not to have a link, but it was ABC headline news on the radio. And it was not explicit but implicative: Edwards endorsed the candidate for "change" and said the other candidate was for doing things the same old way.

The moment I can get a hard link I will post it.

8. I am trying to find something hard.
I apologize but this was just based on the top hour news on an ABC affiliate. I'm trying to find something to verify it.

6. He did not endorse either
Said Obama didn't have enough experience, can't remember what he said about Hillary.

7. I doubt that is what they meant
They were probably discussing who he would endorse and, like the Washington Post, noted Edwards had said Obama is a candidate of change who differed from Edwards mainly in how to achieve change while he had called Hillary part of the status quo.

9. This story seems very current, and it is not stilted like the ABC story was

Maybe the ABC radio story was not accurate. I can assure you that it was loaded with invective and innuendo.
