Obama Meeting a No-Go, What Does It Mean?

The big news story today was supposed to be the meeting between Obama and Edwards. It did not occur today afterall. The story is being spun a few different ways. Obama-Edwards meeting a no-go, for now states it is supposed to be re-scheduled according to Obama's campaign. No explanation as to why it was canceled. No date released at this time. Then, Obama Skips Visit to Court Edwards states it was a choice by Obama to skip the meeting because of his positive showing this past weekend. Finally, Obama on Edwards Meeting - "We're gonna make it happen." states just that.... he said he still wants to meet with John but would not elaborate any further.

I found an actual recent quote from John at salon.com:

"Speaking to a local radio station, Edwards explained the meetings: "I promised both Sen. Clinton and Sen. Obama [that] before I decided whether I would endorse anybody or who to endorse that I would meet with each of them. So that's what that was about."

So, with that in the back of your mind, John had agreed to meet with both of them. You can read it a few different ways.... this is what I've heard.... Clinton has the endorsement in the bag.... Obama's momentum has made him arrogantly cast John aside as unimportant.... Obama had a scheduling conflict.... what do you think?

I wanted to close by saying that I am sad the blogging activity will cease at JohnEdwards.com tomorrow. The Edwards cause cannot stop. We cannot stop. We are Edwards Democrats! Stay informed! Stay connected!
