So true. They'll snuggle up to Kerry also.
Being from NC, Edwards would fair better than Kerry nationwide. It's a crap shoot who wins their primary.
You're right about that. What baggage he does have, that of being a trial lawyer, is of concern and obvious to people like us at FR who understand the deleterious effects these creatures have in a free economy/society, but my concern is that most of the electorate doesn't know or care. In any case, I predict that the Rats will attempt to neutralize that my saying something like "yeah, well, sure, he's a trial lawyer, but in his case, that's a good thing because he fights for and cares (there's that word again) for The Little Guy", blah blah blah. Combine that with his college-boy looks, young kids and wife, and the sucker moms will get all hot and wet over him, the unions and lawyers will eat it up, and the media will have a field day contrasting it with how Bush II "is only interested in foreign policy". When Edwards starts talking about "focusing like a laser beam on the economy" and signs on Carville to set up another "It's The Economy, Stupid" War Room, I'm going to start checking the date to make sure its not Groundhog Day.
MAYBE
The reporter covering the anouncement on PMSNBC this morning commented that if Edwards didn't get the nomination, he could always join a "Boy Band".
Even the liberal press thinks he is a joke.
And the reason Kerry has had trouble getting traction is that the entire Washington Press Corps despises him.
The press will certainly get on board for the Democratic nominee, but they are gonna beat these clowns bloody during the primaries.
