Excerpt:

Over the weekend I posted over at Bleeding Heartland noting an Edwards campaign press release that talked about a big increase in their online fundraising. There weren’t too many specifics in the release, and some folks were curious as to amounts. When I emailed the campaign, they were pretty mum on details and […]

On Saturday night I lamented the lack of the Dodd Debate Talk Clock for the Democratic debate in New Hampshire. Thanks to MSNBC we have the breakdown of time each candidate spoke as well as the number of questions posed to the candidate. At first glance, it seemed as if Edwards was being […]

Or why the Register endorsed Hillary Clinton.
I’m not bitter, of course, but I think that it just stupid that the Des Moines Register decided to look past Edwards because he wasn’t as happy-go-lucky as 2004. When Atrios highlights Edwards’ statements on ABC’s This Week, I think we get a pretty good look at what […]

Excerpt:

Marc Ambinder is reporting that Mari Culver, the wife of Iowa Gov. Chet Culver, is rumored to be endorsing John Edwards tomorrow.

Rumors abound on the campaign trail today that a big Iowa voice is set to endorse John Edwards. His campaign is mum, but Democratic sources in Iowa believe that Mari Culver, the wife of Gov. Chet Culver (D), is set to endorse the former North Carolina senator tomorrow.

The governor himself is said to be remaining neutral, but if his wife endorses Edwards, the larger Culver orbit will be seen to have descended on Edwards’s campaign. (Mari Culver endorsed Edwards in 2004).

Gov. Culver’s chief of staff, Patrick Dillon, worked for Edwards in Iowa in 2004, and his is married to Jennifer O’Malley, Edwards’s state director. Another Edwards alum serves as Culver’s communications director.

This won’t be as big of deal as Christie Vilsack’s endorsement of John Kerry back in 2004 because the Culver’s have only been in office for a year. However, it is big news for Edwards because it gets him back in the news after he lost the Des Moines Register vote to Hillary.

Well, now that we’re less than three weeks out from the Iowa Precinct Caucuses, it is time for me to make a tough decision: Who am I going to caucus for?
After watching the debates, attending events, reading the profiles, and listening to my friends I decided that it was time to face […]

When discussing the news that Mitt Romney paid almost as much on for makeup as John Edwards did for a haircut, Marc Ambinder writes:
“There is a difference in the political reality: fairly or unfairly, a healthy chunk of the national political press corps doesn’t like John Edwards.
Fairly or unfairly, there’s also a difference in narrative […]
