Unfortunately, Dean self imploded before he had it all wrapped up. I have been a close follower of politics for over 25 years, and this freefall even surprises me. I think a ticket of Kerry at the top and Edwards as VP would provide a tough ticket for Bush. What do you all think?

It would be very tough - especially with President Bush alienating his base by spending like a Democrat.

I think your Kerry?edwards ticket would give Bush a run. Kerry has always frigtened me. Edwards is an empty suit but is in training for the big job. Sort of a clinton without as much Saavy. Kerry will run strong.

But if Dean pulls out a #2 in New Hampshire after tonight, is he "the comeback kid?"

Probably the toughest combination of those still realistically in the hunt. It recreates the classic Kennedy/Johnson ticket of 1960.

On the other hand, this isn't 1960. The Dems haven't won with a northern liberal since 1960. My money would still be on Bush, but he'd have to work harder for it than with any other likely combination.
