From the beginning, Kerry had 'loser' written all over him and selecting Edwards was the coup de gras.
Sure, even the liberals make fun of Kerry up here in Massachusetts, but they are so full of hatred and intolerance anything they say about Republicans all boils down to name calling.
And the video of Edwards combing his hair for 15 minutes was unbelievable. Talk about coup de gras, the compact was over the top! :D
