Edwards is also liberal.  However, Edwards is a far superior candidate to Kerry.  I'm amazed Democrats can't see that.  Hey, I thought you guys were anxious to win.  Edwards would give you a much better chance to do that.  Edwards would be a very tough candidate in the general election.  Glad we don't have to face him.

Well, Edwards is very liberal economically, but is center-left socially.  Kerry's voting record is about 25-30% more liberal than Edwards, according to the national journal.

I'll say it again:  I don't see Bush beating edwards in the general.  I just couldn't see it happening.

Its because half of the voters don't know anything!

"Look, its that there John Kerry, he's be winnin' everything!, VOTE!"

Edwards would wreck Bush in the general election.  A short little cowboy screaming about fear and terrorism, against a southerner with a big smile and a campaign full of optimism.  Are you kidding me?  But my stubborn little democrat friends want to nominate....... a massachusetts ultra-liberal?  Why?  I don't think we can take another 4 years of Bush, but nor do I want to be waiting 8 years for Edwards, we need this guy now!

Bush is no better than 50 - 50 against Edwards.

80 - 20 to beat Kerry.  

It appears the argument as to how well Edwards would do vs. Bush is pretty academic now.  Dems determined to nominate Kerry.  Why I have absolutely no idea whatsoever.  It can't be his likability.  The guy is from all accounts an elitist snob.  Conceded to the point of not even being liked by liberals.  I don't think he's going to go over with the electorate over eight months.  At least that's how it looks to me.  Edwards on the other hand seems to be a guy you could feel good having a beer with.  He could connect.  I don't see Kerry as the kind that will bond with the American people.  Gives the impression that he thinks he's superior to everyone else.

Exactly.  

And no I don't think it will be 80-20, but Bush will win.  Kerry is just not charasmatic like Edwards.  Watchng Edwards speak puts a smile on your face.  Kerry's just.....bleh.....  Hell, I'm the biggest hockey fan you'll meet and his little hockey playin stunt in NH didn't do anything for me.  

And Agcat, speaking of hockey, whats with any state below Maryland and hockey?  It's like it hated!
