I agree also.....I don't understand in spite of the explanation why a Republican would vote in the Democrat primary. I would think we need this thing to be over, the sooner the better.

The way I see it, if Kerry is crowned now, he has four months of free reign to lob any accusation he wants at Bush, Repubs, etc. He doesn't hgave to spend any money campaigning because its already in the bag.
On the other hand if Edwards hangs around through July and can be competitive, Kerry has to spend money, political capital, time and effort, etc. smacking edwards down. Infighting among democrats is a GOOD thing. It produces a weaker candidate in the end and gives Republicans a chance to start acting instead of constantly reacting (or lack thereof, but thats a different matter) to wild Rat insults and accusations.

Aides say Edwards' populist message will resonate in Ohio and upstate New York, areas hard hit by job losses. But I thought Hillary! would take care of the job losses in upstate NY -- that's what she ran on, after all!
