Lieberman, but he wasn't on the list.
I'd actually go with Gephardt. He had the right views on economy and the necessary experience. Sure, he was dull, but the country wanted a strong and safe leader, not a charismatic beauty queen like Edwards.
That line about Edwards being a charismatic beauty queen is f**king hilarious!! And very true.
I agree with you about Lieberman by the way. I think he stood the best chance of beating Bush because he could have gotten a lot of moderate votes that went to the president.
He would have had trouble holding his base. The Democratic Party's base is so far out in left field (literally) that it's very difficult for them to hold things together and win an election.
