RAPID CITY, S.D. (AP) -- Hillary Clinton won't say what was discussed, but she's talked with Elizabeth Edwards about her husband's endorsement of rival Barack Obama.
Campaigning in South Dakota Thursday, Clinton said she has a great deal of respect for Elizabeth Edwards, and that they have a lot in common. She also said John Edwards' backing will help Obama a bit in next week's Kentucky primary. But she said it's still all about "the people who actually vote."
Clinton spoke after Obama picked up four of Edwards' Democratic National Convention delegates, and the backing of four superdelegates and the United Steelworkers Union.
Obama is now 131 votes short of the 2,026 delegates needed to clinch the Democratic nomination.
