Accounts of Edwards Electoral Death Are Perhaps Premature
Ian Welsh
Perhaps all the folks who keep wanting to count Edwards out, should note this poll on Nevada

Barack Obama: 32 percent

Hillary Clinton: 30 percent

John Edwards: 27 percent

It's still close, and Edwards' delegate count is just fine, thanks. He's in the running to be kingmaker at the convention, and if something unpredictable happens, he's still within distance to win it all. He'd be a fool to step out now. Nor does the fact that South Carolina is polling badly for him mean much--it's only one state.

--------
The rest of the editorial slams on Obama in comparison to Edwards, read it hear if you care:

3. Of course they are.
Why would anyone want a candidate forced out after only 2 states? That's not very democratic of Democrats, imo.
