A friend of mine sent me this. Edwards isn't my favorite candidate, and I don't expect him to win, but this is still good. :-)

Top 10 Reasons Why John Edwards WILL BE the Democratic Nominee

--------------------------------------------------------------

10. He's the only candidate who can take on Bush on every issue and in every state.

9. First State Dinner: Carolina Barbeque

8. Sequel to Four Trials: Four Years

7. He has the best plan to turn this country around.

6. Two Words: Charles Barkley

5. He's a Southerner, but still tough enough to brave snowstorms in Iowa and New Hampshire.

4. He runs five miles a day. In 2004, he'll run Bush back to Crawford, Texas.

3. Sequel to Four Years: Four More Years

2. Elizabeth would make one great first lady.

1. Most people still believe in an America where the son of a millworker can go toe-to-toe with the son of a president for the White House.

1. I support Edwards.

But I don't think he is going to be the nominee. All these things you say about him are great but he jumped into the race at the wrong time.

6. Reason #9 is enough to rule him out.......

I live in North Carolina (transplant fromthe north) and KNOW that that stuff they call barbecue isn't. Barbecue is RED!!!!! Barbecue is BEEF on the bone!!! Not pale pork on a bun with coleslaw..

14. No

chopped pork on a plate with Brunswick stew, boiled potatos, and corn sticks and of course, sweet tea. :thumbsup: Not the sandwich. And certainly not BBQ beef:thumbsdown:

Populism and electibility.
