I'm not sure.  I think it would be good for Kerry to choose someone everyone recognizes, but not someone everyone expects.

Tom Brokaw maybe?  Or any Republican (not necessarily McCain), Cohen maybe.

And there are some good dark horses, like Senator Harry Leid of Nevada.

Tweed has been a hard-core Edwards guy for a while.

The only problem is he is more likeable and a stronger candidate in nearly every way than Kerry. So Kerry would have to be careful Edwards does not overnalnce the ticket, making it bottom heavy.

The more people look at Edwards as the image for the Kerry/Edwards ticket the better.  If he's chosen, Kerry would be wise to have a lot of the media focus on Edwards.

I'm not sure about Bush doing better in North Carolina because Edwards is chosen..that's going over the top.

However, look at the states below Georgia.  Ohio, the number one battleground for 04.  Wisconsin, Iowa, Minnesota, etc.

w/a oddball possibility of Hillary. Edwards is out IMHO that's my prediction, put it on the record. Smiley


Oddball possibility?  You were so certain earlier.  Our bet still holds though Wink

Anyway, Kerry seems to  be making Edwards go through some practice runs through the key states to see how he holds up.  Obviously that will contribute to the final decision.
