Edwards is out--Good news for Obama?

Last week, while talking to Mrs. Hoagie Central, I said that if Edwards dropped out before Super Tuesday, it would swing the whole thing to Obama. But that if he did it afterwards, Hillary might win Super Tuesday and carry that momentum to the nomination.

My wife didn't think that he would drop out before then, that he would at least test he waters and see if there was anything left. Well, we didn't anticipate the Obama beatdown of Edwards in his home state. And now Edwards is out.

With the Democratic race down to two horses, it would appear that Obama would pick up more of Edwards' voters than Clinton. Will that be the case? And does this move set the table for an Obama/Edwards ticket?

  1. Yeah, this is definitely great for Obama since Edwards has been supporting him for over a week already. I think it's going to be more like Bananas Tuesday.
