20. Same old, same old
People don't vote for the VP. Edwards could have never carried NC. Kerry couldn't carry North Carolina. It had NOTHING to do with Edwards. Kerry lost NC. It would be hard to find a dem who could have carried NC in a presidential election.

I know dozens of people who voted for Bush simply because they couldn't stomach Kerry. These same people said they would have voted for Edwards is he had been on the top of the ticket instead of the bottom.

I guess we'll never know how the outcome would have been if Edwards were the nominee in 2004. All I can go by is what Bush voters told me.
