And Conventional Wisdom Is KO'ed Again, As...
 
- Edwards, Kucinich agree to share support in Iowa caucuses

John Edwards.
Dennis Kucinich.

I'm trying to figure this out. Clearly Edwards has the most to gain from this alliance, as Kucinich won't make 15% in more than a few of the "crunchier" Iowa precincts. But since Kucinich knows that most of his supporters probably have Dean in their second-choice slot, he realizes that he hast to ally himself with someone who has a fundamentally different style so that their switch in allegiance will hopefully be temporary. Or so I'm speculating.

On a lighter note, the Blogger spellchecker keeps trying to replace "Kucinich" with "juiciness".
