Electability, Thy Name Is John
Edwards posits, not for the first time but for the first time in a debate, that John McCain will be the Republican nominee. Says that South Carolinians need to not just to consider their vote Saturday as a primary vote, but as a vote for the candidate who can beat McCain in November. Democrats, Edwards says, must be able to compete in rural and more moderate communities, not just in large urban centers.
"I think that I can go everywhere and compete head-to-head with John McCain," he says.
