If possible, John Edwards' 2008 campaign has even less substance than his 2004 one. His entire startegy revolves around platitudes and ignorant populism.
If he is elected president - or even nominated by his party - it will reflect a serious decline in the quality of American democracy. Calling him an empty suit is an insult to all the three-pieces hanging on the racks at Men's Warehouse.
If I had to rate my "favorites" among the current top-tier Democratic candidates, it would have to be:
1) Obama (shudder)
2) Clinton
3) Edwards
I only put Obama ahead of Clinton because I imagine the side effects of an Obama presidency could be reasonably good for the nation. It probably would be good for America to have a black president. (Especially an "articulate" and "clean" one, right Joe?)
