MANCHESTER, New Hampshire (DH)— While new democratic front-runner Barack Obama holds a solid 9-point lead ahead of Sen. Hillary Clinton, former Sen. John Edwards has taken a 20-point lead in an online Scrabble game with daughter, Cate Edwards, CNN’s Wolf Blitzer confirmed Monday afternoon. “She’s a firecracker, I tell you,” Edwards smirks. “Up until this turn she had a solid 40 points on me—granted, I left the ‘triple word score’ wipe open—regardless, though, she’s giving me a run for my moolah.”
When asked about the upcoming New Hampshire primary, Edwards closed his laptop, took his glasses off and let out a tired sad and profound sigh.
“A 20-point lead. Even if she plays a good word, even one with a ‘Q’ in it, I’ll still be in the game. I’m uh…uh—geez, um—I’m gonna take a walk for a breath of fresh air.”
Edwards spokeman says the Scrabble game will be "in the bag" before the primaries.
