Clinton out of it Edwards Suggests

(CNN) — Democrat John Edwards seemed to suggest Friday Hillary Clinton's third place finish in Iowa may have rendered the New York senator effectively out of the presidential race.

Speaking at an early-morning campaign rally in Manchester, New Hampshire, Edwards pointed to entrance polls indicating Iowa voters overwhelmingly listed "change" as the most important attribute they are looking for in a candidate. That means, he added, there are now only "two choices."

"What is clear is that [voters] are not interested in status quo," Edwards said. "They're interested in change. They want to see a candidate of change, and so they now have two choices in making that decision, and this choice is somebody who will fight for the change that makes America what it's capable of being.

Edwards also continued with his campaign’s standard populist pitch in the Granite State, telling Manchester voters, "I am not the candidate of glitz. I am not the candidate of glamor; nor do I claim to be. But what I am — I am the candidate for president of the United States that is the peoples' candidate."

Well, yeah, Edwards is smart to put his own spin on this. And so quickly, too!
He 's not a winning trial lawyer for nothing. But cute as he is and appealing to the elderly and the disenfranchised, it's still any of the top three's race to win.
Whew! I would hate to have their schedules from here on out!

I still believe Edwards to be the only truly viable candidate the Democrats have! I'm not in his corner but Hillary has high negatives and Obama will eventually encounter racial issues.I like to think that America has moved beyond racism but I think it will surface once the media honeymoon is over.Speaking of negatives,Hillary may now be forced to become far more negative on Obama. It's a risk that she must take! Edwards will soon see that Clinton is far from out of it.He is just attempting to divide and conquer..
