NEW YORK - The John Edwards camp is still quiet. The former presidential candidate still hasn’t made an endorsement.

But he seemed to stop just short of it Friday on NBC’s “Today.” 

He said that Barack Obama can unite the Democratic party, bring in new voters and get people excited about change, the Associated Press reports.

According to the AP, Edwards said Hillary Clinton has made a very strong case for her candidacy, but adds “it’s very difficult to make the math work” for her nomination.

Edwards dropped his bid for the White House in January. He also was the Democratic vice presidential nominee during Democrat John Kerry’s unsuccessful presidential run in 2004.
