I was meaning to mention on Election Night that Edwards is up for re-election during a presidential election year, in a state that is decisively pro-Republican as far as presidents are concerned. He'll be on the ticket along with President Bush.

Edwards won election in 1998, against a one-term incumbent who ran a weak campaign (Lauch Faircloth), during a time when the voters were pro-Democrat in defense of Clinton during the impeachment hearings.

I think if we can find a viable candidate, we can knock Edwards out of his seat, assuming President Bush is as popular in 2004 as he is in 2002.
