Edwards to Enter 2008 Race

WASHINGTON - Former Democratic vice presidential nominee John Edwards intends to enter the 2008 race for the White House, two Democratic officials said Saturday.

Edwards, who represented North Carolina in the Senate for six years, plans to make the campaign announcement late this month from the New Orleans neighborhood hit hardest by Hurricane Katrina last year and slow to recover from the storm.

The officials spoke on condition of anonymity because they did not want to pre-empt Edwards' announcement.

I'm not sure. I think he's great, but I'd have to see who else will be running, and their relative strengths.

Thanks, anyway.

13. So far, the only non DLCer with a good chance.

I'm not sure about Obama on that point yet, but Edward's is more populist that corporatist.

The anti-Hillary.
