How are you so certain? From what I understand (correct me if I'm wrong), Edwards can run for re-election and run for President at the same time -- and let's face it, his chances of being elected President in '04 are less than zero.

The GOP HAS to convince Kenny Guinn to run if Harry Reid is to be defeated. Like Racicot in Montana (who chose not to run against Max Baucus), Guinn is the only Republican (other than Ensign) who has any name recognition and popularity within the state.

Any more thoughts on how we can beat Boxer and Murray?

I'm certain because there's no reason for him to run. Edwards isn't power-hungry. He's president-hungry. He doesn't want to hang out in the Senate.

Under any scenario of how the 2004 race would play out does it make sense for Edwards to be a senator in 2005.

Guinn isn't the only Republican that can beat Reid. Reid barely won in 1996 when the GOP had control of the Senate. Now we'll have a GOP Senate plus a popular Republican president running for re-election.
