I can't think of a single state lost by Algore that John Kerry could carry.

Lieberman was essentially a Florida native son for all intents and purposes, given the demographics in Palm Beach. Florida is lost to the Rats for sure, unless they put a Floridian on the ticket.

John Edwards aka Breck Girl, is the wild card. He could potentially carry some southern states. He hasn't enjoyed the media's baptism by fire yet, so it is hard to say how he'd hold up as a candidate.

Graham is seeking the VP slot, which is why he got out early on. Look for him to be the VP candidate regardless of who gets the Prez nomination. The Dems figure if they can get Florida, they will win.

Yes, it's hard for me to believe that the Democrats would nominate another Massachusetts liberal as their candidate. They would be totally writing off the Southern vote, which they can't afford to do.

Even with Graham on the ticket, I don't think Florida would be a sure thing.

Edwards, on the other hand, could be a whole 'nother story.

Well, Palm Beach County is lost to the Rats, for sure. Luckily there are a few other counties as well.
