Former Secretary of State John Kerry said in new comments that he regrets picking former Sen. John Edwards to be his running mate while a top the 2004 Democratic ticket.

Kerry told CBS News in an interview set for broadcast Sunday that Edwards ultimately "didn't measure up" to what he wanted in a running mate.

“If you measure the qualities that you are looking for when you choose a vice president,” Kerry said of Edwards, “it didn't measure up. It wasn't what we had hoped for.”

Maybe Kerry seeing the MSM heap praise upon praise on McCain decided to follow him by dissing his VP choice as well. If McCain has started a trend of losing campaigns doing so I can’t wait to see H dis Kaine Mitt dis Ryan etc. It wouldn’t surprise me to see W dis Cheney someday given how far his brand has fallen. W’s that is not Cheney.

None of the other possible choices was that charismatic.

None of them could have dragged Kerry over the finish line.

Here's the latest John Edwards scam he's pushing:
Edwards promotes programs to eliminate poverty in the United States, including arguing in favor of creating one million housing vouchers over five years in order to place poor people in middle-class neighborhoods. Edwards has stated, "If we truly believe that we are all equal, then we should live together too."

What an evil pinhead! Thank God his political career as a candidate is dead, but he's still in the background pushing his crap.

Julian Castro, just like Martin O’Malley has been put forth to the public as the Next Generation of Democrat for at least the past 10 years. So far, Castro has failed to excite the base. Some folks just do not have natural charisma and must try to learn it. In O’Malley’s case, there simply was nothing to get excited , or even worried about.

Castro is from my home town. I know him and his faggy twin brother. I know his radical La Raza Mother.

I know not even Texas would vote for this commie. And he knows it too. That’s why he’s not running against Ted Cruz. Or for any office at all.

He’s a homo dweeb. With no political future.

I heard Edwards was code named the Breck Girl by GOP operatives working on strategy.

Kerry has a whole head toupee like Phil Spector, Ronnie Wood of the Rolling Stones,Jeff Beck and lately Paul McCartney.

Is that your hair? Yes, I paid for it.

Regrets, I’ve had a few
but then again
too few to mention.

But I did it
my (Heinz fortune heiress wife’s) way....
My way

(She said “If I ever catch John playing around with another woman I will maim him, and I did not say kill him, I said maim him.”) He has worn Kevlar boxer shorts day and night just in case after that day.

We alll have our regrets. George McGovern regretted picking Thomas Eagleton as running mate, and Nixon probably wished he’d picked someone less corrupt than Spiro Agnew. And, I made a mistake with my first wife. Nobody is perfect.
