Reply #28: The article - agree except last line - Kerry will not pick Edwards as VP. [View All]

[elsiesummers]

Kerry insiders keep suggesting Evan Bayh. Could also see a case for Gephardt, Graham and Clark. Richardson says he won't leave his current job.

The only way Edwards will be VP is if the DNC forces him onto the ticket - and I don't think Edwards would agree anyway.

Kerry can't pick Edwards because he has said out loud that Edwards can't bring NC. It is clear that Kerry's previous irritability towards Dean is now showing with regards to Edwards.

BTW - am still pulling for Edwards as the nominee - he surges at the end - and it's not over yet. Also, any anti-establishment movement, such as that of Dean and Kucinich, will be dispersed with a Kerry presidency. Edwards will offer more than lip service to the movement for change and reform.
