Al Sharpton is expected in New York

NYT has an interesting article in the Kerry/Edwards relationship

… Three years ago when, at Mr. Kerry’s suggestion, the two had dinner at Olives, a trendy restaurant near the White House, to swap stories after Al Gore passed over both in picking a running mate. Each told associates he enjoyed the other’s company, but it was not quite the beginning of a beautiful relationship.
Now, as the presidential campaign has narrowed to a race between the two senators on the eve of the coast-to-coast Super Tuesday primaries, strains between them are growing evident.
Their relationship has become a source of speculation among Democrats, not only because they are rivals in the primaries but also because party leaders are increasingly entertaining the notion of a Kerry-Edwards ticket.
They have at times seemed chummy, as they did during Thursday’s debate in Los Angeles, when Mr. Edwards gently touched Mr. Kerry on the shoulder during a point of disagreement. But they have also seemed distant, as was the case on Sunday in New York, when they shook hands after a particularly contentious televised exchange and went their separate ways with few words……..

“Chemistry is an elusive thing; you never know until you try,” said Senator Evan Bayh, the Indiana Democrat, a friend of Mr. Edwards. “I’m sure that whatever the substantive or stylistic differences now, they could work their way through that for the common good.”

“I really don’t think either would pick the other,” said Senator Orrin G. Hatch, the Utah Republican, adding, “Well, they might if they’re forced to.”
Asked how the two Democrats get along, Mr. Hatch replied: “I don’t think particularly well. Kerry is not the warmest person, and Edwards just hasn’t been here.”
