Maine Congressman Mike Michaud endorsed John Edwards's presidential campaign this morning, stressing what he believes is Edwards's electabilty.
"He is the only candidate who has won in a red state," Michaud said.
In 2004 he did not endorse any presidential primary candidate, something he told reporters on a conference call "was a mistake".
Michaud, a self-described Blue Dog Democrat and mill worker, said he believes that Edwards will be able to "relate to the American people very well" because of their shared working-class upbringing.
