47. I have almost exactly the opposite view
I think an Edwards surge would really mess things up for all three of the other candidates, but leave him no better off in New Hampshire than he is now.

Remember, we're talking about proportional allocation of delegates. If all four men end up within a percentage point of one another, who actually comes out of this a winner? The guy with 3/7s more of a delegate?

All four roll into New Hampshire in the same mess that they were in during Iowa (hopefully rolling over Joe2004 as they do) and the battle continues, only now they have to contend with Clark for the first time.

Yeah, Edwards is my guy.

And if he doesn't get the nod I think whoever does would be a turkey not to ask Edwards on board as VP, or at least Attorney General. This is a guy who WILL be president sooner or later. He's someone Hillary should keep close watch on.
