Edwards is the only threat. He doesn't have any record to go against and he's taken the high road. If he makes it in the the top 2 in NH he's trouble !

Edwards used to be an ambulance chaser... I am sure he used to represent some pretty unsavory clients to be slimed with.

Maybe I'm being confident, but I'm not THAT worried about Edwards, at least now yet. For goodness sakes, the guy looks like he was just weaned! Sure he's a fresh, attractive baby-face, but will that kind of tabula rasa prettiness inspire confidence in a nation worried about war and terrorist attacks? And he may be taking the high road now, but how long will that last now that he KNOWS he has a chance at actually getting the nomination? Plus, he's pretty green.

I'd be more worried about Kerry--he has the Vietnam-combat background, he's experienced, he has that craggy-faced serious contemplative, depthful look about him, plus he's tall (sounds silly, but unfortunately height, just like looks as in Edwards case, can sway a lot of voters). Also, he has a Hispanic wife and I know a lot of (Hispanic) people who'd vote for him just because of that, notwithstanding that she's supposedly nuttier than a fruitcake.

I can see why he won the big legal cases. That deal with Kucinich was smart. Did Kucinich get a few delegates out of it?

So now Dean, who was already the joke on SNL, is ready for the funny farm, Gephardt and Braun are out, and I can't see Lieberman lasting very long. Sharpton and Kucinich (prediction) will go to the convention with their small number of delegates, and if it's split, have some say in the deals.

Ahhhh....Survivor Island, political style.

re:Edwards

Yes, he seems very "kennedy-esque" (even though I am too young for all that)


But then I heard his talking points afterwards, and he's so young and has lofty ideas but no solutions.,
