Altho he didn't say he would do so today, whose camp do you think Edwards would get behind....or if it came right down to it, if he was given a choice to be a running mate, who would he say 'yes' to?

Don't really know. I think if either Dem candidate gave him the option, he'd say yes to a VP position. I think he's committed to keeping poverty on the front burner, so he'd want to make that his issue, no matter whose admin it was. But as far as getting behind one or the other, I really don't know. At times it seemed that he and Obama had a lovefest, but I don't know if it was genuine or if it was convenience, since both of them had the same goal of defeating Hillary. I guess time will tell...

From an article on CNN.com:

Time magazine journalist Joe Klein said, "I don't think he endorses Hillary Clinton. The question is whether or not he endorses Barack Obama."

Klein contends that Clinton "represents a lot of the things that [Edwards] campaigned against, you know, the old Washington Democratic establishment that he believes got too close to the corporations in the '90s."

And I agree with alum, I also would have considered Edwards, depending on who the Republican candidate would be. I think he would make a great VP if it came to it.
