Yes, Kerry has a lot of good winds blowing in his sail now. Farenheit 9/11 and the Clinton book are going to put Republicans on the defensive. Then, the 1, 2 punch of a VP pick and Demo convention in July. Kerry should be riding high at the end of July. Then, Bush will have his chance to make his case at the Republican convention in early September. If he fails to pull significantly ahead of Kerry after the convention, then it's probably over. After the glow of the convention wears off, Kerry will pick up support again. The debates could be really interesting. Bush isn't all that good on his feat, Kerry might just land a knock-blow and send Bush back to Texas. All in all, Kerry is sitting in a good position right now.

Eureka! Kerry/Moore '04

It just doesn't get any better than this. It rhymes. It makes a nice chant. It lends itself to all sorts of fun:

Carry more in oh four!
Can Kerry carry Moore?,

story.news.yahoo.com

The AP poll showed that more than one-third of registered voters — 36 percent — said they would most like to see Kerry choose Edwards.

Among Democrats surveyed, Edwards fared even better: 43 percent preferred him over three other Democrats.

The first-term senator from North Carolina remained in the primaries longer than any other major candidate and won over thousands of Democratic voters with the positive tone of his campaign.

The poll showed that 19 percent of registered voters wanted Rep. Dick Gephardt (news - web sites) of Missouri, the longtime Democratic leader who is retiring from the House. Eighteen percent chose retired Army Gen. Wesley Clark (news - web sites), a political newcomer from Arkansas, and 4 percent picked Gov. Tom Vilsack of Iowa, a relative unknown on the national scene.

About 23 percent said they were not sure or they offered another name.

When Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton (news - web sites) of New York was added to the mix, one-fourth of the respondents supported her while Edwards' backing remained strong at 34 percent. She picked up one-half of the black vote, drawing support from Gephardt, Vilsack and the "not sure" category.

She repeatedly has ruled out accepting the vice presidential nomination, and Kerry has not offered it.
