11. A few months ago, I had found that page after googling for stuff
Looking at it I was amazed at how massive the Kerry victories were. The amazing thing is that no one seems to remember this - which makes me feel better for not remembering. I knew he won all but a tiny group of states, but the fact that he won them by big margins is significant.

It also makes you wonder at things like the comment by the WP guy in the article for which theirs a link at the end of the Reilly article. Read Edwards - the results really don't live up to "Edwards is the most naturally talented politician in the field, a raw charisma that paid major dividends in 2004." It's interesting as he then ads:
"And he will benefit (as will Kerry) from having been through the wringer of national politics once before." Although it seems that Kerry took the brunt of everything. Oddly, he ends with " But there just doesn't seem to be the same energy for Edwards in the insider community as there was at this time in 2002." Yet he still places him a step before Kerry - who he may be under-estimating again.
