Should Obama thank John Edwards?
According to All Headline News: Edwards’ Dishonesty About Affair Led To Loss For Hillary August 11, 2008 3:21 p.m. EST Washington, D.C. (AHN) – The former communications director for the campaign of Sen. Hillary Clinton (D-NY) thinks the former first lady would have won the race against Sen. Barack Obama (D-IL) if former North Carolina Sen. John Edwards had been honest about his extra-marital affair. Howard Wolfson told ABC on Monday that Clinton would have won Iowa, the first official contest of the primary season, if Edwards had been caught earlier lying about his infidelity. “Our voters and Edwards’ voters were the same people… They were older, pro-union. Not all, but maybe two-thirds of them would have been for us and we would have barely beaten Obama,” Wolfson added.
