John Kerry was a "sacrificial lamb", the Dems wanted to win, but had Kerry been president, he would have done better on Katrina, but the Great Recession happened on "Dubya" watch.  Romney would have been elected president in 2008, had Kerry been president under the Great Recession.

But, Gephardt, not Edwards, with strong union support, would have clinched OH, and NM and IA for Kerry, Edwards was not a good Veep pick, but a stronger presidential candidate.
