Democratic presidential candidate John Kerry is expected to be in Atlanta Saturday night.

The senator and Democratic frontrunner will visit an Atlanta church and hold a town meeting. Georgia is one of 10 states having elections on March 2, also known as super Tuesday.

Kerry's closest rival, Senator John Edwards, visited Savannah on Friday, just one day after his trip to Atlanta. Edwards reminded supporters that more than 67,000 manufacturing jobs were lost in Georgia during George W. Bush's time as president.

Edwards is expected to head to seven other states between Saturday and super Tuesday.

Meanwhile, consumer advocate Ralph Nader says he may run for president again.

Nader is scheduled to announce his decision during an appearance on NBC's 'Meet the Press' Sunday morning.

Nader says he'll base his decision partly on whether both parties respond to his agenda of universal health insurance and reforms to the criminal justice system.

Nader is expected to run as an independent.

Hmmm.
If they kiss his rosy red rump, he won't run, is that it?

Is it just a coincidence that the Ringling Brother's Barnum and Bailey Circus is also in Atlanta today? This may just be more CLOWNS than we can stand!

Drudge says Nader is in. It doesn't get any better than this. Our side had the hand grenade with the crew cut undermine the bids by Bush I and Dole for the Presidency and the left has Nader the Corvair killer.

Nope.

If the Dems kiss, he won't run.

If the Republicans kiss it, he will.
