If Dean had gotten the nod... (none / 0) (#1)

...he would be faced with a choice:

1. Promise to pull out of Iraq.
2. Promise to "stay the course."

Choice 1 would have lost him the election outright. Choice 2 would have pissed off all of the coffee-house bloggers who got him the nomination in the first place.

That candidacy was dead from the beginning. Edwards would have had the best shot against Bush.

John Edwards is a jackass (none / 0) (#13)

A trial lawyer.

Please.

Maybe he could chase the ambulances driving away from the smoldering hole in LA when the ragheads get a nuke.

I'm a very pretty pony!

most politicians are lawyers or were lawyers at some point, so where is the difference in that?

Other than that they are military men or rich, spoiled, business men........can't see much difference there either.

So what was your point?

I would take my chances with the military men... (none / 0) (#15)

...and not the ones who join the Air National Guard to shirk duty and then occasionally show up, and not the ones that get fake purple hearts, throw all their ribbons away, betray their comrades, then parade their "war hero" status to 4 terms in the Senate. Real military men who know the realities of war, and at the same time aren't afraid to defend our great land.

Also, I'm drunk.

that Edwards would have been the best shot against Bush as he is a very strong, but tactful person who seems to have the right ideas and the right mindset for the job.

One of the very reasons I will vote for Kerry is because Edwards is his vice........only wish it were the other way around, Kerry was vice, Edwards was running for Prez.

Still, Deane does have a shot in 4 years and don't be surprised if he comes out being the choice next time in the Democratic party........or perhaps at least Edwards running mate. :-)

I might seriously have voted democrat, had Edwards won the nomination.

However, there's something about Kerry that creeps me out. I wish I could put my finger on it, but I can't. In any case, I've learned to trust my gut feelings. (Tried to accept a fiancee of a friend that bothered me, though I didn't know why, and later learned that he started beating her after they got married.)

Who's dead now?

where have you been????????

Hows life with the kids these days????

Yeah, you are right, when Bush wins, I don't see him losing this election, I just don't. I might not like that very much, but still, it looks like he will be in another 4 years.

He might surprise me, I am one to admit that on any given day, the unexpected and impossible can happen.

A New York City ordinance prohibits the shooting of rabbits from the rear of a Third Avenue street car -- if the car is in motion.
