Elizabeth Edwards will join the Center for American Progress as a senior fellow.

The wife of former U.S. Sen. John Edwards will work on health-care issues and write for a newly launched blog called the "Wonk Room," the nonprofit announced yesterday.

"As many can attest, I have an opinion on everything," she said in a statement. "But I am particularly concerned about the state of health care in America and I am grateful to CAP for giving me the chance to continue to advocate for universal and quality health care coverage for all."

Edwards also said she will continue her push for universal health care coverage.

The nonprofit policy research and advocacy organization was created in 2003 as an alternative to conservative think tanks. Founded by former John Podesta, the former chief of staff to President Clinton, it has strong ties to Hillary Clinton.

That led Jay Carnery of Time magazine to speculate on the meaning of the announcement:

"Does the fact that Elizabeth is coming aboard CAP signal that John is finally going to endorse, and that he'll throw his support to Clinton?"
