how far ahead would Edwards the presidential candidate be?
just saw an ad with Edwards.......sound off

superficially, which, of course, is the extent of Bush's appeal, Edwards has it ALL over the chimp, not to mention his running mate

since, as Howard Zinn, says, the election of a dem this time is just a thin ledge upon which democracy teeters, what difference would it have made if he'd won the nomination?

he's SO much better on the stump

superficiality is what wins

let's face it

and Edwards looks to be GENUINELY amiable, as oppposed to the vindictive chimp, who even Howard Fineman admitted the other day, discombobulated his handlers by lashing out at that reporter who asked him about Edwards

1. I don't think any of them would be doing much better than
what Kerry is right now running even or a few points ahead of an incumbent president is pretty good at this stage of the game.

2. think of all the ammo they couldn't use on Edwards
not nearly the record as flipflopper

not wooden

not uncharming

not remote

not having a rich, FOREIGN wife

huge questions on experience, but negated by two things

Bush's own inexperience

and the result of his team's experience: disaster on every front


remember, it's the narrow ledge between another Bush regime and a chance at democracy restored
