Edwards camp averages Iowa polls since Xmas: Clinton 28.2, Obama 27.5, Edwards 26.3
http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2008/01/02/543433.aspx

From NBC's Mark Murray
DES MOINES, Iowa -- Having trouble keeping track of all the different poll, not to mention the campaigns' spin and counterspin on them? To helpe clear up some of the confusion -- and also make the case that its candidate is doing better than the Des Moines Register poll suggests -- the Edwards camp has released a short memo averaging the nine Iowa polls released since Christmas (MSNBC/McClatchy, Strategic Vision, Insider Advantage, the average of the Zogby/C-SPAN tracking survey, Research 2000, another Strategic Vision, Des Moines Register, CNN, and LA Times).

The average has Clinton at 28.2%, Obama at 27.5%, and Edwards at 26.3%

Using polls to justify your candidacy is one of the last forms of desperations. It's a sign that supporters are jumping ship.
