The dynamic performance by John Edwards in Sunday's Democratic presidential debate, assailing his competitors for the nomination, got high marks from political reporters, Republican politicians and left-wing activists. But not from the Democratic establishment. Once their great hope for the future, Edwards now is massively unpopular among party regulars, who neither like nor trust him.

IMO, Edwards is running for one reason and one reason only: In order to hang in long enough and make enough of a campaign to get matching Federal dollars. He knows he's unelectable, but he'd be able to use his "war chest" to influence other races and candidates which would give him some behind the scenes power.
It's all about de money.

Come on man, he’s a lawyer that made his money screwing baby doctors.
Is there a worse scumbag in the world?
