Title: Attorney General Edwards?
Post by: Chris_ on January 29, 2008, 05:28:54 PM

WASHINGTON, D.C. -- Illinois Democrats close to Sen. Barack Obama are quietly passing the word that John Edwards will be named attorney general in an Obama administration.

Installation at the Justice Department of multimillionaire trial lawyer Edwards would please not only the union leaders supporting him for president but organized labor in general. The unions relish the prospect of an unequivocal labor partisan as the nation's top legal officer.

In public debates, Obama and Edwards often seem to bond together in alliance against front-running Sen. Hillary Clinton. While running a poor third, Edwards could collect a substantial bag of delegates under the Democratic Party's proportional representation. Edwards then could try to turn his delegates over to Obama in the still unlikely event of a deadlocked Democratic National Convention.

maybe the Republicans can stomp their feet and obfuscate and hinder and drag their heels all over the place about giving him an up or down vote... JUST like the Dems did to all our president's nominees?

You're kidding, right?
There's nary a vertebrae to be found when it's our turn to stuff a bad nomination.

youre right on that count... our side seems to think they need to remain gentlemen and women and not throw any punches.
