The surging Democrat is ... John Edwards?
Filed under: John Edwards
Glenn Greenwald's new post at Salon makes the case that John Edwards' growing support is absent from the dominant media narrative. It's hard to argue with this -- I just spent a week in North Carolina, which is Edwards country, and heard much the same sentiment. Check out the new Rasmussen poll numbers, which make this look like a three-way race after all.
The more I know of Edwards, the more I like him, although I think he may be swamped by the rising Obama tide.

Um, look at more recent data, Glenn Greenwald and you.I click the embedded URL for the Rasmussen poll in the Glenn Greenwald piece in Salon, http://www.rasmussenreports.com/public_content/politics/election_20082/daily_presidential_tracking_polling_history
Edwards was at 23% on the 6th, yesterday and today at 20%. Scanning down the percentages for the last several months, Edwards on one day was at 18%, the range is between 13-17%.
