Edwards and Hillary met for 20 minutes behind closed doors after last debate

[marlonjose]

Earlier today I was trying to remember where I heard it; but now I googled it and found it in the Washington Post's "The Trail" blog on January 22nd.
It narrates how John Edwards and Hillary Clinton "walked out of their green rooms after the debate and agreed to talk, then went behind closed doors in Edwards's green room."

the essence of politics.

5. His staff said that he normally did that with Obama after debates

I wouldn't read much into it. 20 minutes doesn't make a deal of this magnitude.

6. Don't know if this is absolutely true, but the night of the SC primary

Howard Fineman said that someone had told him ( so it's third person stuff ) that Edwards had made a major reach out to the Obama campaign about what, he didn't say, but whatever it was, the Obama people didn't want anything to do with it. I remember this because it sounded so odd and I had no idea of what they were talking about and Howard Fineman wasn't telling. Just dropping some senseless hint at something.

7. Obama is on such a roll he dosen't need

Edwards in any position but on his knees bowing at the feet of the visionary prophet of hope and change.

9. And then, he said, that he said, that they said that he said that you said

and on and on and on and on

Amazing how that works, hey. Just folks making shit up as they go.

Are we supposed to simply believe that what you think has anything remotely related to any facts......at all? :shrug:

[comradebillyboy]

14. don't much care what you believe nt

[Hoof Hearted]

10. Well. Hearts jump. Seats squirm. The plot thickenzzz.

11. It has been reported here from someone who has connections inside the

campaign that this was NOT what it is being rumored to be, that if JE had wanted to have a serious discussion with HRC about anything it wouldn't have been done in front of eyes and cameras at a public debate. It was, reportedly, nothing more than chat. I expressed concern about it last week and this is what was said in response.
