John Edwards says he's not interested in becoming vice president...The former presidential candidate told the press his wishes last night in New York City. Edwards was in the city receiving an award from demos, a liberal policy research center. On Wednesday Edwards endorsed democrat presidential nominee Barack Obama. The fresh support helped add to Obama's overall delegate count.

Huckabee said at least one intelligent thing in his campaign. He said the Vice Presidency is the one job no politician claims to want, but it is also the job no one ever turns down.

He's just trying to get out in front of never being asked to be VP by BARACK NEVILLE HUSSEIN CHAMBERLAIN OBAMA.

Dan Quayle was asked that same question in 1996, and he said, “Been there, done that!”

GHWB said in 1980 that the vice presidency is like the last cookie on the plate. Everyone says he does not want it, but somebody ultimately takes it.

Well Dan has actually been vice president. John only ran and lost.

So Edwards said no this time. Guess that saves the voters from having to say no to him again.......

Without Edwards on the ticket, Obama keeps what chance he has alive for carrying NC.

There is no explanation necessary to take the last slice of pizza or the last beer. Just don’t take each of them.

John, your mouth says “no”, but those pictures the other night say “yes, yes, oh, God, yes”.

Too bad :-( with opie as VP he and barack mcgovern could have gone a record. They could have been the first rat ticket to get less than 20% of the White male vote.
