funny, i feel like some of the Queen City came w/me...but that's another story
John Edwards like John McCain, to me, didn't catch b/c folks feel like they had their shot now they must move on. Dems want a winner and and they see him as the past. a rather unfortunate past.
Fred Thompson, he seemed more interesting when he was a ?. now i think folks see him as a candidate and their ardor has cooled(ex. a lazy campaigner, not good as far as a public speaker, etc.). i don't think he'll catch up and surpass Romney and Guiliani. could be wrong but i don't think so.
as for HRC and Obama (a cousin of cheney, poor Obama
), her fundraising numbers are going up and i'm a bit concerned. i want him in this until the bitter end. not as a distant 2nd but as a real contender.
but, we'll just have to see...
