I think Edwards will take the #2 slot, if offered. First, I think they will win, but even if Kerry loses, I don't think it will hurt Edwards' chances in the future. FDR was a losing VP candidate - it didn't hurt his career. More recently, Dole ('76 as VP, '96 for President) and Mondale (lost as VP '80, lost as President '84) both received their party's nominations after losing as a VP candidate.
