It's official! Isn't it great? I would of gone with Hillary myself, but this is okay.

I like Sen.Edwards so this "may" finally help me to decide on who to vote for and who NOT to vote for.

Anyone see the New York Post today?

No surprise that it's a newspaper owned by Fox News.

As for the new ticket, I'm thrilled. Edwards just might give Cheney his 5th heart attack. I'm glad he didn't go with Clark, he would've had a lot of **** to deal with. As for the critics who complain about Edwards because "he has no foreign experience," that never stopped you from voting for George W. Bush. What was his foreign experience? He had none.

I had to save that picture.

I can't believe the Republicans are using the McCain 1st-choice thing; it is just sick and wrong. It makes sense though, they have absolutely nothing else to work off...

Those McCain statements simply have no basis in fact. How do they know he was the first choice? They don't, they're just playing politics. Just because someone was courted, it doesn't mean they were the first choice. However, if that's how they want to play it, we might as well say that Clark, Vilsack, and Gephardt were Kerry's first choices, too.

Turn on MSNBC, Mitt Romney is on talking about how Cheney has more character and moral fiber than Edwards. *puke*

Again, what foreign experience did Bush have? NONE. They're such hypocrtical douchebags.

Myself too...I always said if John Edwards were running against Bush I would vote for Edwards, and if it were Kerry vs. Bush I would pick Bush... so this may help me decide things myself....I do like John Edwards a GREAT DEAL..

I know it must seem like I'm always calling you out on this one particular point (

), but I just don't understand that. How do you go from supporting John Edwards, a liberal just like John Kerry, to supporting an ultra-conservative right-winger like Bush? The only point in which Kerry and Edwards disagree is free trade, that's it. To go from supproting a liberal to a scary neocon is just unfathomable. I just do not understand it and probably never will.

I'm so relieved he chose Edwards because it would have been a MAJOR letdown if he didn't.

Hopefully this will push some undecided voters over to voting for Kerry now. I think this bodes very well for November.

Oh, and he's the senator from my home state, which is awesome too

GO JOHN/JOHN!

They also disagree on the death penalty.

I read an article back in January where Edwards said he had changed his mind on the death penalty and was now anti-capital punsihment. Who knows, it was probably just a ploy to get us lefties to vote for him. In any case, I don't foresee him being in a position of having any say when it comes to the death penalty for years. If he still supports it when he runs for president in 2012, he won't get my vote.

Because Kerry is a Yankee, Brahmin, fancy pants elitist liberal, darling. It's all in the phrasing and the accent or the lack thereof.

I love how Southerners look down upon Yankee politicians, it cracks me up. Watch twenty minutes of Washington Journal and you'll hear the most hateful and venomous calls come in from the South.

Great news! I like Edwards and he is who I was hoping Kerry would choose. I really think Edwards will appeal to some of the swing voters in a way Kerry could not.
