- aliengoods, on 05/15/2008, -0/+1Your comment is either astonishingly ignorant or one of the worst examples of sarcasm in history.

- TheDuke, on 05/14/2008, -3/+17Say hello to your next Attorney General
- Michael9636, on 08/04/2008, -1/+4You are very likely right. It would be the perfect position for him. VP would be a second choice.
- aliengoods, on 05/15/2008, -0/+2Possibly more. Odds are 2 justices on the Supreme Court will be retiring in the next term.
- StepCousin, on 05/15/2008, -5/+4....OR say hello to the next Monica Lewinskey.
You're laughing now, but mark my words; we may yet hear about Obama slipping a cigar up Edwards's snatch. She does have beautiful hair.

- Brian47126, on 05/14/2008, -2/+11I was really annoyed with Edwards taking his sweet time in crowning Obama, however, I wonder if Obama asked him to wait until this moment... I have often thought Obama has directed many people to endorse him at specific moments in order to bolster his standings. If that's the case, then well played sir... well played...
- Michael9636, on 08/04/2008, -1/+4It's probably Obama's timing. Yesterday Obama lost West Virginia by a huge margin. In tonight's news cycle, we could expect to see Clinton all over the place promoting her "massive" win, and charging on to the next big "win." Now? Not so much. It's all about Obama and Edwards. Clinton has been pushed out of the news. This is a masterful strategic timing strike by Obama.
- coffeebaby, on 05/15/2008, -1/+3yup... was thinking the same thing. Obama has shown how extremely well organized he is, and there were rumors he had super-delegates lined up for specific days so it wouldn't surprise me. he's always thinking dozens of steps ahead of everything... i bet he can play the ***** out of a game of chess.

- kemp34, on 05/14/2008, -9/+4I wonder if Edwards cares at all about how his hair looks?
- upick, on 05/14/2008, -1/+1I think thats the look he was aiming for
- dd240sx, on 05/14/2008, -1/+4Finally "Hillary Rodham Clinton OUT"
- Thinker10, on 05/14/2008, -2/+6HRC? Not for me.
- timbro1, on 05/15/2008, -6/+2John Edwards supported the war on IRAQ and raising taxes on the poor.
- cppwizard, on 05/15/2008, -7/+5Great. One Phony endorses another phony.
- PlainJoe, on 05/15/2008, -0/+1Care to explain your charge without raising one $400 haircut?
- tonto6, on 05/15/2008, -1/+3Finally, thank you John Edwards!
- JensenSteve, on 05/15/2008, -2/+4Obama becoming president cannot come soon enough. He is a fresh light of hope in the fear driven police state the US has become, and hopefully he will restore our freedoms that were taken from us. Wake up people, and realize that the current administration have been brainwashing you with fear to condition you for a life of servitude. Vote Obama before its too late.
- Wundur, on 05/15/2008, -5/+2The military corporates, bankers and Federal Reserve also endorse Oprahbama, Clinton and McCain.
So who do these entities disendorse?
The only man worthy of the Presidency for real change - Ron Paul. - irishjamie, on 05/15/2008, -3/+2Vice President-- Edwards--Clinton for Secretary Of State
- PlainJoe, on 05/15/2008, -0/+1I've been wondering about this...Clinton as Secretary of State.
She is well respected with some high ranking Generals in the military. And she would be under strict control by President Obama.
Then again, she differs on her approach to foreign policy. She won't converse with countries or leaders of "rogue" nations (nations that have self-interests different from America).

- DiggLive, on 05/15/2008, -1/+1This makes Michigan easier. All 55 uncommitted could be put in Obama's total when factoring in FL/MI. I'd support him as the nominee if he can get 61 more to gain a majority of all pledged delegates (3566 total), and take the popular vote after June 3rd that Clinton has a very slim lead with.
- SeaweedWater, on 05/15/2008, -3/+3This dude can talk to dead people, so I completely trust him.
