Veepstakes: Let the Speculation Begin!
Added 955 days ago on January 22nd, 2008
The news that former senator John Edwards (N.C.) and Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton (N.Y.) huddled for 20 minutes or so following Monday night's debate in South Carolina stoked speculation that perhaps the duo were discussing the potential of sharing a national ticket together.
Neither campaign offered any explanation for the gathering - further driving the rumor mill. (Edwards, himself, did some work today to quiet the talk of a Clinton/Edwards ticket, decrying the "squabbling" between Clinton and Obama in last night's debate and adding: "I'm John Edwards and I represent the grown-up wing of the Democratic party.")

Having Edwards out of the race would probably hurt Clinton more that help. Their are more people that want to stay away from Clinton within the Edwards camp, if pushed more people would pick Obama. The exception being South Carolina, where Clinton and Edwards are splitting the white vote.
