Deadwards
Why do people keep propping up this guy?
Early post-election balloonfilling by the pundits consistently includes the mention of John Edwards as a strong candidate for the 2008 Democrat nomination.
Huh?
We've never seen the appeal. We remarked repeatedly at how totally overrated this guy is. What precisely has John Edwards ever done to warrant such high regard, other than get trounced in the Democrat primary and not deliver a damn thing to Kerry's campaign? John Edwards is a single term Democrat Senator who's seat was lost to a Republican and who spent half of his term running unsuccessfully for higher office.
Just what has this guy done, aside from win the Mr. Congeniality competition against what can be universally agreed was a lackluster Democrat field?
