A Tighter Race

A Kerry-Edwards ticket could beat Bush-Cheney, according to the latest NEWSWEEK poll. And while the Massachusetts senator remains the clear Democratic frontrunner, John Edwards increasingly appeals to voters WEB EXCLUSIVE

NewsweekFeb. 21 - And then there were two. Former Vermont governor Howard Dean abandoned his bid for the White House Tuesday after a disappointing third-place showing in Wisconsin.

Redfish, Nader's decision is somewhat disappointing to many of us. But we have to wait and see if this time around Nader would draw on the votes of disgruntled Republicans who would stay away anyway instead of coming out and voting for a Democrat. Last time he attracted those Democratic voters who were upset with the Clinton-Lewinsky affair. This time around it is different. It is about those Republicans who are upset with Bush.

We also have got to wait and see whetehr his voice would add to the other voices against Bush's record.
