Edwards' 2004 "Two Americas" campaign theme looks prescient, post-Katrina.
I got the sense that the Kerry people kept him under wraps after the convention out of fear that he would outshine the top guy on the ticket. If correct, that's much more responsible (among many other Kerry miscalculations) for losing the election than anything Edwards said in the Cheney debate.
He should have spent all his time in NC, central PA, and Ohio. They might have carried NC if he would have been here more, and who knows, maybe Bowles would have won as well and we would be one seat closer to the Senate.
