Tomorrow Would Be a Great Time for Edwards to Endorse Obama: Wisconsin Primary Eve
John Edwards is still very popular here in Wisconsin--he lost narrowly to Kerry here even after Sen. Kerry had built up momentum. (I'll always remember being on the stage in Middleton, chatting with Kerry's siblings and meeting Sen. Max Cleland ,while we waited for the results to be final in 2004.) The day before our Feb. 19th primary would be the perfect time for an endorsement of Sen. Obama.
Politico; Obama visits Edwards:
Sen. Barack Obama (D-Ill.) paid a secret visit to his former rival, John Edwards, in quest of his endorsement on Sunday.
The meeting in Chapel Hill, N.C., where Edwards lives, is the latest effort by Obama and Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton (D-N.Y.) to win "the Edwards primary" — the heatedly sought endorsement of the third-place finisher in the race for the Democratic presidential nomination.
Clinton also pulled off a secret meeting to the Edwards mansion earlier this month. Speeches by both candidates have been including frequent references to Edwards's message about ending poverty.
In a delegate race that's essentially tied, with Obama in a slight lead, the Edwards nod could be very valuable.
