Well I'm not saying that Edwards is the #1 Democrat. I just meant that I see him as a stronger candidate than Kerry, yet he is second place.

His public speaking is very good and strong. And I feel he's done a fine job clarifying where he stands and I don't see him as a flip flopper. Of course, I'm no political expert.
What exactly do you not like about him?

He strikes me as very uncaring, he isn't too bright. He seems to me like he is not prepared for answers at interviews. He is just a silver-spooner from birth. I don't know how you don't see him as a flip-flopper.

Did he? I've always been under the impression that he grew up just as spoiled as Bush. But, in either case, you couldn't tell. Kerry seems very out of touch, Bush seems more like the everyday kinda guy. IMO they're both uncaring rich assholes.
Sikotic™:
Kerry was not a silver spooner. He earned his stripes, and found a rich broad - somethin' I wanna do myself to be honest.
I don't see how Kerry is uncaring. He looks more presidential IMO (of course that means absolutely nothing) and I think his plans will help out America domestically, something Bush has conveniently brushed aside.

I know, I think you missed the point. What I was saying was that it doesn't matter is Bush or Kerry are silver spooners, they're both arrogant rich assholes. But I can't tell, because Bush is like the everyman (in his general demeanour) and Kerry seems like an aristocrat. Of course I know Bush isn't actually an everyday guy, the point was that he acts like he is.
