Obama Forces Shuffle

Obama Forces Shuffle in Early '08 Lineup - WSJ.com

Powerful front-runners are forcing a reshuffling in the Democrats' lineup for 2008.

"Indiana Sen. Evan Bayh's unexpected decision not to enter the 2008 presidential race demonstrates how dramatically the Democratic field already is being jolted by this race's early X-factor: the grass-roots excitement about novice Sen. Barack Obama's possible run.

Meanwhile, former Sen. John Edwards of North Carolina, Mr. Kerry's 2004 running mate, is going forward with plans to confirm his candidacy just after Christmas, in a modest event amid post-Katrina reconstruction work in New Orleans's impoverished Ninth Ward."
