Edwards' Cabinet List Includes GOP Names

NASHUA, N.H. (AP) — Democratic presidential candidate John Edwards carries a running list of people he might put in his Cabinet, and it includes “more than one” Republican.

“I want to be ready for when I get sworn in,” the former North Carolina senator said between campaigns stops as he dug into a travel bag for the list.

“I might have it with me,” Edwards told The Associated Press. “I wouldn’t show it to you, but I could have it with me.”

He didn’t hand over the list, nor did he commit to putting Republicans in his Cabinet.

“No, because the test for me is not whether they’re Democratic or Republican. The test is how competent they are and whether they’re the best person for the job, and to make a decision about who’s best to choose you have to spend time talking to them,” said the 2004 Democratic vice presidential candidate.

We don't know who these Republicans are, of course. Ooooh, maybe Coburn's on there. :scared:
