I had hoped he was finished in 2004. Obviously, not quite.

he's too rich to be finished- he has to 'connect with the little guys' ya know http://sacredscoop.com

I think his campaign will be extremely short-lived. He inherited J F'n Kerry's "gravitas".

[Lancey Howard]

LOL, could you imagine an Edwards/Obama ticket? The two oiliest, empty-suit scumbags on the political scene today on one ticket! Man, that would surely test the stupidometer, even for Democrats.

I still have the tape of Dick Cheney giving pony boy a spanking in the debate. It's awesome to watch.

His self image is a big problem.

"Will be President for a PS3"

A more loathsome demogogue has never run for President.

This bloke worries me more than anyone else. There's something decidedly "Bubba-ish" about him.

Edwards could take all before him...

[Jacob Kell]

I suspect that this is really nothing more than a propaganda puff piece written by a Edwards supporter who doesn't want to admit that Edwards's chances for the Oval Office are deader than Uday and Qusay.

John "Helium Baloon" Edwards will this week become the first Democrat heavyweight

Against the storm-ravaged backdrop of a New Orleans district

The storm ravaging stopped some time ago.

Now it pretty much just sits and rots and stinks and gets moldy.

...with a folksy southern charm...

He has no Southern charm. I have heard ALL HIS VERSIONS of speaking "Southern," one phonier than the other. He isn't "folksy," either.

And why is this such a virtue now? The dims couldn't trip over themselves fast enough to point out that W was too Texan, therefore a rube.

Hillary will never allow anyone prettier than her to get the nomination:

I can think of many adjectives to describe Mr. Edwards, but "heavyweight" ain't even in the top-ten. About three days of his trite Two Americas rhetoric, and I'll puke. John needs to buy a clue, and disappear.

[Joe Boucher]

He's an ambulance chaser and has made a fortune sueing baby doctors. He's a p.o.s.
Merry Christmas Mad man.

[jslade]

You do know his Diddy worked in a meal, didn't you?

[mewzilla]

Edwards is 4 months late on taxes

Edwards late with property taxes 9 times

Taxes are for the little people.

"The declaration by Mr Edwards, a former senator and his party's vice-presidential candidate in 2004, will kick off a season of official announcements in coming weeks by the major contenders for the Democrat and Republican nominations.

Can't wait for this scramble!!!

I had hoped he was finished in 2004. Obviously, not quite.

OH! He will be...once after the Red *itch & (her barkin' pet) Osama, gets finished w/ him....(he should refrain, from flying in small planes, driving alone in cars, walkin' across streets...etc. )....and if; He's lucky; he'll be back, chasin' ambulances/paddy-wagons again full-time....

[Graymatter]

I tell ya it's the 16-year curse! Youthful, apparently healthy fellow renowned for his great hair, with a young daughter for photo ops advantage---comes along after 8 or more years of Republican presidents and fools people that he's a breath of fresh air. It happened in 1960, 1976, 1992, and it'll happen again in 2008.
His running mate will either be Hillary (chosen out of intimidation) or Kerry (highest bidder).
