John Edwards endorsed his former rival Barack Obama's bid for the U.S. presidency on Wednesday, saying it's time for the members of his party to "come together as Democrats."

This is quite an odd time for Edwards to be coming out and saying it, it's not really going to make much difference in the long run. However, it may be because it takes the focus off of Clinton's win in West Virginia.
There has been speculation about a possible Obama/Edwards ticket, but I doubt it, Edwards won't really add much to the ticket.

A quote from Clinton: "He [Obama] isn't stopping, and we won't stop either".
She seems unfettered by reality.

She has to act as if she has a chance if she wants to have any hope of convincing the superdelegates. However, all she can really do is hope for a major blunder on the part of Obama. Otherwise, she (probably) has no hope.
