John Edwards and Barack Obama: Working Together Again

This Nov. 2007 exchange between John Edwards and NBC's Brian Williams is priceless:

BRIAN WILLIAMS: Senator Clinton yesterday told an interviewer that she was certain she would be the nominee.

JOHN EDWARDS (Laughs): If she's certain, she's living in a fantasy world. I've been through this before in 2004. Governor Dean looked like he had an absolute lock on the nomination, and he didn't win a single primary or a single caucus. I would say don't count your chickens before they hatch.

David Shuster included the clip in this report showing how Edwards played the role of attack dog against Hillary Clinton in the early stages of the nomination battle:

Obviously, I'm biased here, but when I see the case being made for Obama choosing Edwards as his veep, I get pretty fired up. I think they looked like a great team yesterday, and I hope it happens.
