I think it will be Edwards and he will be groomed big time for 2008. Kerry is a Dem sacrifice and the party knows it.

the 2008 nominee (assuming Kerry loses) is Hillary. Period.

. . . and edwards is a huge lightweight. if the dems lose
in 2008, even if he is the dem VP nominee, he will spend 8
years out of national politics. not running for reelection
to the senate was a telling decision, and an admission of abject weakness.

how does being out of politics for 8 years "groom" someone
for national office?
