Quote from AAAintheBeltway:
While I agree with everything in the above posts about Edwards and Obama's likely VP choice, I think you have to understand that his reasons for running are different than the others. He is more of a Jesse Jackson-type candidate, running to give himself more celebrity, which leads to cushy no-work hedge fund jobs, corporate boards, gargantuan speaker fees,etc. Plus, his campaign has not exactly been a disaster. He has dispatched Sens. Dodd and Biden, who are far more qualified than he is. And it's not like Hillary and Obama don't each have the potential to blow up at some point, leaving him to pick up the pieces. I expect him to stay in until the bitter end and leverage it into a prime time convention speech, possibly a cabinet post.
