While I am a Kerry fan - for his politics(I am a political junky and have been following his career for awhile), I will be the first to admit he is not a snappy speaker. He has an extreme wealth of knowledge and often wants to convey every detail. He also has a tendency to "wander" through a speech. Edwards, on the other hand, is a dynamic and often uplifting speaker. I saw him on This Week about four years ago and told my wife that here is a guy that is going to run for president, and I meant it in a positive way. I think he would make a great candidate and would have a solid chance to beat Bush. If Edwards wins South Carolina and does well in most of the other states on Tuesday, he will still have a chance. If Edwards does win the nomination, I won't mind it a bit. You know, I heard someone say that Edwards is just about everyone's second choice. That may sound like a slight, but I think it means he is widely popular and very electable. All this being said I still am volunteering and voting for Kerry.
