Don't rule out political experience, Cheney has an overabundance beginning in 1969 as well as a degree in political science; Edwards entered the senate in 1998. Personally, I think this will be a pretty interesting contest and honestly, I hope the best man wins.

I agree except for the fact that I've heard that Edwards is known for speaking eloquently off the cuff whereas I always see Cheney reading from his notes.
That's it, but I do really have a lot of respect for Edwards as he comes from a family that is most like a lot of people I know.
