(11,464 posts)Cheney destroyed Edwards.
And Edwards fans destroyed Kerry.
they were quite vocal that they wanted Edwards at the top of the ticket.
BTW, not to defend VP Cheney, but VP Cheney was a seated VP for 8 years. Edwards was a fraud. And VP Cheney did NOT argue about Gay issues, to his credit, did not go negative on it.
Edwards lost the debate.
Edwards is/was a complete fraud.
Populist?
Only person he cared about was him and his $$$.
Edwards was the 1% and helped lose that election.
Single worst VP ever.
Sarah was just out of her league.
I believe 41 picked Dan Quayle for a specific purpose-to help neutralize the National Guard Vietnam issue W had, and it worked. No one seemed to care deeply about W's service except for Dan Rather, and he was sold down the river by CBS and the Democratic voters anyhow.
Where was John Kerry/John Edwards in defending Dan Rather(the memo was NEVER found fake, and the info was 100% true, as Bush himself never denied the info in the memo).
Edwards was a complete and utter fraud.
time proved me right.
I said this back in 2003. I thought back then, Edwards reminded me of Stephen King's Dead Zone. (also I noted the resemblence between Edwards and a certain Chuckie of movie fame).
Kerry should have picked Bob Graham.
(oh wait, Edwards fans said Graham was too old, he was too ugly, he was obsessive, he was boring, blah blah blah).
Kerry should have picked Bob Graham.(and so should Al Gore, or better yet, if Al Gore so needed a candidate like Lieberman, he should have picked Paul Wellstone(who was the model for the Bartlett character Martin Sheen played on West Wing.
wooo, a karma moment of symetry.
Martin Sheen played the President on West Wing and was in the Dead Zone.
(trivia note- I bet if Ramón Antonio Gerardo Estévez ran for President, he never would have stood a chance. I would have proudly voted for him.)
How about a ticket of Hillary45/ Ramon Antonio Gerardo Estevez in 2016?
Create double history at the same time.
