drudge is whispering that the DNC chairmen wants Edwards as VP

[taxidriver]

for once, i hope matt the hatt is right.

1. Drudge is full of shit. Regardless of how you feel about Edwards.

[in_cog_ni_to]

2. I agree.

He's just doing his regular shilling for the RWers and the WH. Nothing new.

[taxidriver]

4. i know, i was just pleasantly surprised by the thought that terry might

be eyeing my favorite choice.

regardless of the source.

3. I deleted the drudge link 6 months ago...it's par with the National

Inquirer. Delete the link, never listen to Fox and stay tuned here at DU for the REAL news.

10. your kidding right?

du is wayyyy too opinionated to be real news. don't get me wrong - i love it - but sometimes du'ers get into a trap where every single possible conservative western idea is evil and thats just not always the case (usually its 90% of the time) but you understand where i am going with this. i think its okay to watch fox news simply for the purposes of seeing how the other side interprets the same news sources that we get (ap, reuters, etc..) (its pathetic that we have battle lines drawn now, united we stand indeed)

5. I would be very surprised if Edwards is not the VP pick

Way too much pushing him in that way.

6. The RW media is pushing him.....n/t

[taxidriver]

8. is that a bad thing? do you not want him to be VP?

...nice clark pic, btw. he'd be a nice choice too.

[in_cog_ni_to]

11. No, I don't want him to be VP.

I think we need someone like Wes Clark who has Foreign Policy experience, knows world leaders and is respected by them and can help Kerry get us the hell out of Iraq by bringing in the UN and NATO. FP experience up the kazoo...We really do need Wes Clark as VP....to win. The Iraq situation is only going to be worse after the transistion of power and by November, the place is going to be nothing but a terrorist haven, if it isn't already. Wes Clark has the experience needed. IMCPO

12. the VP's job in a campaign is to act as attractive window dressing.

and garner votes in difficult areas. kerry has enough foreign policy experience by himself. edwards will help us get southern voters, young voters, and moderate repubs.

[in_cog_ni_to]

18. Kerry needs to concentrate on fixing the domestic

homeland. The deficit. Jobs. Health-care. SS. Medicare. The environment. Our schools. Wouldn't it be nice to have a VP qualified in FP so Kerry can concentrate on that? G-d knows Bush has f***** it all up! :shrug:

[cjbuchanan]

9. I think a lot more then RW media are pushing him

A lot of the higher-ups in the party seem to want him. At the Texas Dem State Party this past weekend, they all but officially endorsed Edwards for VP (he did speak at the convention).

7. It might very well be Edwards

However, I wouldn't trust Drudge as a source.

14. Why does Drudge care about this? And why should I care about Drudge?

16. The biggest non-secret in Washington, DC.

:shrug:

17. Drudge also says he's not gay....yeah right.
