Here's some more on John Edwards' withdrawal from the Democratic race, which we mentioned earlier today.
You notice that Edwards has endorsed no one, and most journalists today remain leery of predicting which way he will go. But I think he pulled out now because he wants Obama to win, (Obama being the anti-Washington candidate of change, like Edwards) and he thinks that the majority of his voters--maybe even a solid majority--will go to Obama. So why not clear the way for him. Edwards seems to dislike Senator Clinton, who he sees as the status quo candidate.
Edwards doesn't want to say this out loud, however; he doesn't want to burn bridges with the Clintons, who he knows could still be the eventual party nominee.
