So today Obama trotted out John Edwards to try to communicate with white working class voters. Obama wants to woo the white working class by proxy. John Edwards as ambassador from Obama to the white working class will be as successful as ambassador Ted Kennedy when he was sent to woo the Latino community. John Edwards as ambassador from Obama to the white working class will be as successful as Ted Kennedy and John Kerry when they begged their own Massachusetts constitutents to vote for Obama. Obama can trot out all the show horses he wants to get votes for him - but it won’t work. The problem is Obama. Obama is unelectable. Which brings us to the major opportunity: John Edwards’ assignment will be to go to Kentucky on behalf of Obama to try to placate and fool white working class voters. A Hillary victory in Kentucky will demonstrate to Superdelegates, again, that white working class voters will not vote for Obama - no matter how many circus attractions Obama sends out on his behalf.
