tell them that Edwards should bring it up at the debate. How Kerry only does one point better than Edwards against Bush in NH, yet Edwards does 14 points better than Kerry against Bush in NC. I think that there are many ways one could explain why Edwards is more electable on paper than Kerry(and paper is all we have right now) but polls like this are what people in primaries seem to be more receptive too, because most of them really haven't studied political science and all the rules and theories and intracasies of that.
