Edwards sure doesnt like being seen in the reaverview mirror..

'What took Kerry so long,' all the pundits have been asking.

Well, we hear for all of his Lurch like slugishness, the real stick in the mud was John Edwards, who didn't want to concede.

Presumably, he sees his politcal future now shrinking into the blinding glare of Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton's pantsuits..

[gopwinsin04]

When the margin of victory exceeds the provisional ballot count, I think it qualifies..

"I understand "Kerry," but who is this guy "Edwards" you are talking about?"

Edwards was the Dim with the compulsive hair fettish...

[spectre]

LOL! Very tactfully put :~)

Sound like Kerry disinfo. Fits the pattern of blaming others. And so what if someone wanted to wait, I have no problem with that.

The blood bath is starting with the dumb-o-crats eating one another.

Keeps Lurch boy viable for 2008 as well..

What, are they going to magically change??

"...the blinding glare of Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton's pantsuits..."

That word picture is too much for me. I feel sick.

Cordially,

Yes, and the pundits will say Kerry's biggest mistake was choosing Edwards...he did nothing for Kerry. Normally a southerner would help the ticket, but one has to choose a moderate southerner to gain votes in the South...not a liberal trial lawyer who could not get re-elected in his own state.

Edwards is looking at unemployment, whereas Kerry will still have a job.

I HOPE he leaves NC. We REJECTED him a LONG time ago!

Here's my card in case you find that....err...any foreign objects in your food

Haven't you ever heard of "black-body radiation?" :)

[Cold Heat]

No, I believe Edwards was reading the tea leaves correctly.

This has always been about Kerry. Kerry thought he would win and refused to believe the results.

...Kerry, at least, has a pretty sweet job to return to.

I'm not sure servicing the Heinz widow will be all that sweet after she sobers up and realizes what a doofus loser she's married this time.

[danneskjold]

true, but I was referring to his U.S. Senate job...I know, it's easy to forget he's still a Senator...

[Mamzelle]

I read in one thread--Edwards the "cracker shyster"--I laughed at that one, and I'm from the rural mountainous south...

Here's a thought: What if John Edwards replaces Chris Matthews or one of the other liberal pundits? He would be about as popular as John McEnroe, but it would be good for some laughs for a while.
