    E-dwards leads the e-Poll

    The Texas Democratic Party's recent online e-poll drew more than 8,100 participants, though they can't prove whether these online voters are actually registered voters or over the voting age, even.

    That didn't stop the John Edwards presidential campaign from celebrating their victory in the non-scientific e-poll. The Democratic contender is trailing both Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama in more-scientific national polls, though Edwards continues to have strong organization and support in Iowa. (A first or second place finish in Iowa could change everything for Edwards, which is probably what his campaign is banking on.)

    Elizabeth Edwards is in town to do a book signing for Saving Graces, a book about her life's losses and the love she received during her troubled times. But first, she stopped to meet the press.

    "We can do this, and this is just an indication of his strength in places in the country that democrats too often write off," said Edwards. She thinks Edwards is the most threatening candidate to the GOP in Texas, because he's a Southern man from a Southern state and grew up in a place that valued "Sunday morning church, Sunday evening church, Wednesday night church and Friday night football".
