If this is the case, if Edwards can't get across an impression of "heft" to the audience, Dick Cheney will eat his lunch. I think the libs at MSNBC and CNN are finding out the downside of the Kerry decisionmaking process.
Now if Kerry had gone and picked, say, Lieberman or Evan Bayh, Bush might be in some trouble in November. He still may be. Kerry's ego couldn't handle someone as capable and experienced as he considers himself to be. That's why he didn't pick Hillary.
If your impressions align with that of the liberal media, then the Kerry ticket is in trouble. I strongly suspect that America just saw John Edwards and said "uh oh...."..
Be Seeing You,
