ehrlich/coleman vs, edwards/richardson 2008

[Akno21]

The funny thing about Ehrlich and Coleman is this. Both were lauded for winning in Democratic states. However, Ehrlich only won because voters were sick of the Glenndenning/Townsend way, and because Kennedy-Townsend ran a downright pathetic campaign. Coleman was helped by the fact that his popular opponent, Paul Wellstone, who I beleive would have beaten him, died in a plane crash a month before the election. Walter Mondale was not a serious candidate.

Three candidates being thrown around in 2008 help in different reigons,
Edwards- Southeast
Richardson- Southwest
Bayh- Midwest

Personally, Bayh shoudl be on the ticket in some way because many of the large battleground states are in the reigon where he is strongest.

Bayh would do better in the MidWest than Hillary, at least. Anyway, he would at least make the Republican spend time and money in Indiana.
