Kerry | But The Senate Likes Edwards

Vilsack not withstanding, here the NY Times reports that members of the US Senate are pressing John Kerry to name John Edwards to the VP slot, primarily because they believe doing so would help Dem Senators in five tight races in the South this fall.

Sounds like there are real problems within the democratic party.

As one from NC, Edwards can’t even help Kerry carry NC. A relative of mine in the NC State Senate has himself admitted that much to me. The problem is that the Democratic ticket has not got a winner at the head of the ticket.

Of course not.
Hillary has to have access to 2008.
Kerry is not going to be ALLOWED to win.

Every Bush supporter in the country could stay home that day and the Clinton’s would somehow find a way to keep Bush in the WH.

Of all the scary things I can think of, that um , person, in the white house has got to be the scariest.
