It's tough here; I've been an outspoken partisan since I first joined the board in 2001, and it's been very slow going here for him.

He could truly change the world; he's got pizazz and oomph and a warmth that just radiates from him.

The next President needs to stand up in his inaugural address and basically apologize to the whole biosphere for the reckless selfishness we've loosed upon it, and Edwards is just the person to heal rifts. People can talk to him. He can get support from conservatives that they'd never give to a demonized Massachusetts liberal, and foreigners will flock to him.

He is so undeniably more appealing that it's shocking to hear arguments against him. Ironically, he's probably considerably smarter than Kerry (who's no slouch, mind you) but he won't be tarred as an intellectual as Kerry will.

All you need to know about American politics can be summed up like this: Reagan won twice, and "Forrest Gump" won best picture.

Please, oh please, fellow Democrats, come to your senses.
