One good thing about the Clinton-Obama slugfest is that it might knock Edwards out of the race fairly quickly:
Former senator John Edwards of North Carolina launched his second campaign for the White House from this flood-ravaged city Thursday with a call for the United States to reduce its troop presence in Iraq and a plea for citizen action to combat poverty, global warming and America's reliance on foreign oil.
Wow. War, poverty, global warming and foreign oil are bad. What a brave, bold platform. I have it -- let's outlaw cars; all problems solved. We won't need the oil, nobody will care about the Mideast any longer, the Earth will be saved, and we will all be equally poor.
