Kerry will beat Edwards again, if it comes to that. Edwards is a really likeable guy, with charisma and the southern accent, but his problem is no one can imagine him as commander in chief. Hillary and Obama may have similar problems. Can you imagine any of those three ordering our troops into battle? Especially up against McCain, it just doesn't compute.
In Iowa Edwards is very popular, he has spent more time there than anyone. They really-really like him in Iowa. But when it comes to actually voting for him, most of them won't. So Edwards is probably running for VP again and he'd make a good one, though I'd rather have Clark because of the mess in the Middle East.
Of course the real question is if Gore is going to run. Because IMHO he beats all of them, including Kerry, so long as he sheds 20 pounds. Al has been putting on weight lately. Anyway, sorry John, but if AL runs he gets it because he got cheated first.
BTW: You still owe the threads and explanation for why you smear Kerry with lies and make personal attacks against me. What's your agenda? Are you an Edwards supporter? If so, he's tastes great, less filling. But just doesn't have the gravitas.
In the gravitas department, Kerry has everyone beat, even McCain. That's why he tries to tell jokes when he shouldn't, for some comic relief. By 2008 I'll bet voters will want a very serious president. Gravitas will matter. |
