Edwards Bows Out

John Edwards "takes one for the team":

John Edwards ended his second race for the presidency of these divided states of America this afternoon. His was a spirited, underfunded race with a populist note, which pledged to represent the powerless against the corporate interests. Edwards said that Clinton and Obama had both pledged to him that "they will make ending poverty central to their campaign for the presidency."

Displaying his usual class and ability to be a true team player, Edwards said it was time to step aside "so that history can blaze its path" in a campaign now left to Clinton and Obama. No word as of yet on an endorsement of either remaining candidate, although both are actively courting his supporters at this time.
