Washington Whispers

Senator Kerry's Final Three

Kerry campaign insiders tell us that the Vice Presidential selection team is down to three finalists.

They won't say who they are, but we hear that Iowa Governor Tom Vilsack remains the front runner and that North Carolina United States Senator John Edwards is in the pack.

Senator Edwards is liked inside Kerry headquarters, as evidenced by the Edwards bumper stickers in some cubicles.

It doesn't matter who one pics as their VP. No Presidential election has ever been won or lost because of the VP. At best, one might pick up a couple extra votes in that persons home state and hope to not lose votes in other states by the choice. So in reality, the VP selection means jack squat.

Unless of course you pick some bumbling idiot who should be in an assisted living center like Perot did in 1992.

Who am I and what am I doing here?

Kerry's staff today was reportedly chasing down all of the newspaper columns that Vlasic wrote years ago as a small town mayor..
