3. I am. I still think it could be him.
BTW, is Clark out of the running, or is that as baseless as every other veep rumor?

4. Nope. I'm holding out hope for Edwards as AG.
Having the same VP candidate as the last election doesn't exactly say "change".

5. I really like Edwards. I still have my Edwards bumper sticker; right next to my Obama bumper sticker
but I think Edwards is better suited to AG where he can do what pre-hooker Elliot Spitzer did as AG in New York but bringing that level of corruption-fighting up to a national level.

Frankly, given the choice between Edwards as AG aggressively clearing up the Bush mess at the DoJ and curbing corporate corruption or Edwards as VP attending many important funerals of deceased foreign dignitaries, I'll choose Edwards as AG any day of the week.

6. God I hope not.
Hey....I got a crazy idea.

Let's tell Obama that this is not the right time for him.

We can get Kerry to top the ticket and then have Edwards be the running mate!!!

Kerry/Edwards 2008 would be an UNSTOPPABLE TICKET!!!!!!!

9. I'm sure you imagine you are being funny
But you're not. Really, you're just being rude. A bit of an ass frankly. Please stop, it doesn't help.

10. I am merely giving what the people want
2004 redux.


Please don't accuse me of being rude.

It hurts my feelings.

11. Hopes that he will be nowhere near the ticket.
God, what a horrible choice he would be.

12. I love Edwards
but not on this ticket. He has the exact same weaknesses that Obama does and adds no strengths. AG puts him in just a good a place to run for the top spot in the future and puts him to better use now. Or maybe Edwards to Interior and move Kerry to AG to really bite some asses.
