It will be interesting if he can remain in the race long enough to make a name for himself. I think it's possible that Hillary and Obama will split the vote enough that a 3rd candidate like Richardson or Edwards could emerge.

In regards to the general election, I believe nearly every voter that supports Obama would also vote for Hillary, and she would pull more of the female vote, making her a stronger general election candidate. Then again, I think the same arguments could apply to Richardson and Edwards making them stronger than the powerhouses.
