Re: Kerry picks Edwards as running mate

Edwards also has virtually no experience, and Kerry used to be his enemy.

Edwards repeatedly said he would not be Kerry's running mate, though it has been obvious for months he was running for the No. 2 job. Will he be honest in the future, or did his denials in fact expose his character, or lack thereof?
Quote:
†ωÃà ‚¢Ã¢â‚¬Å¡Ã‚¬Ã‹Å“ In the Senate four years †“ and that is the full extent of public life †“ no international experience, no military experience. You can imagine what the advertising is going to be next year,ââ‚ÆšÂ¬Ãƒâ€šÃ‚ Kerry told the New York Times in January. †œWhen I came back from Vietnam in 1969 I donââ‚Âà ‚¬ÃƒÂ¢Ã¢â‚¬Å¾Ã‚¢t know if John Edwards was out of diapers then. Well, Iââ‚ ¬ÃƒÂ¢Ã¢â‚¬Å¾Ã‚¢m sure he was out of diapers.ââ‚à ƒ‚¬Ã‚
Quote:
†œI think the American people want an experienced hand at the helm of state,ââ‚Ãâ €šÂ¬Ãƒâ€šÃ‚ the Los Angeles Times quoted Kerry as saying on Feb. 3. †œThis is not the time for on-the-job training in the White House on national security issues.ââ‚à ‚¬Ã‚

Edwards said,

Quote:
Edwardsââ‚à ‚¬Ã¢â€žÂ¢ campaign, incessantly described by the media establishment as positive and upbeat, ordered underlings to describe Howard Dean as an †œelitist from Park Avenue in New York Cityââ‚ ¬Ã‚ and charge that Kerry †œcanâà ƒÂ¢Ã¢â‚¬Å¡Ã‚¬Ã¢â€à …¾Ã‚¢t claim to change America because he has been part of the failed Washington politics for too long,ââ‚ÆšÂ¬Ãƒâ€šÃ‚ CNN reported Jan. 22.

Who is the loser?

Quote:
†œEdwards says heâ₠¬ÃƒÂ¢Ã¢â‚¬Å¾Ã‚¢s the only one who can win states in the South. He canââ‚Âà ‚¬ÃƒÂ¢Ã¢â‚¬Å¾Ã‚¢t win his own state,ââ‚Ãâ €šÂ¬Ãƒâ€šÃ‚ Kerry told his aide David Wade, in a remark picked up by a reporterââ‚à ƒ‚¬Ã¢â€žÂ¢s microphone, the New York Times reported Feb. 3.
Lovely insults:

Quote:
Edwards †œwasnâà ƒƒÂ¢Ã¢â‚¬Å¡Ã‚¬Ã¢â€ žÂ¢t in the Senate back then,ââ‚ÆšÂ¬Ãƒâ€šÃ‚ Kerry said in February. †œI donââ‚Âà ‚¬ÃƒÂ¢Ã¢â‚¬Å¾Ã‚¢t know where he registered his vote, but it wasnââ‚ ¬Ã¢â€žÂ¢t in the Senate.ââ‚à ‚¬Ã‚
Quote:
To NBC: †œSenator Kerry voted for NAFTA; I opposed NAFTA. I wanted to make sure voters knew about that.ââ‚ÆšÂ¬Ãƒâ€šÃ‚
Quote:
To the Washington Post: †œI think itâ₠¬ÃƒÂ¢Ã¢â‚¬Å¾Ã‚¢s clear that Senator Kerry and I have very different records on trade.ââ‚Ãâ €šÂ¬Ãƒâ€šÃ‚


etc.


Haha.
