Edwards, as he says, is most electable

[venable]

he was slimed as a gender and race baiter by stating the very important view that he is the most electable. there have been several non-partisan corroborations of this, posted last week.

here is another one.

so, you see, it's not race or gender baiting to say, accurately, that he would fare the best in the general election.

i really hope the party looks at electability for a change.

and, pre-emptively, it is not convincing to say he didn't win NC last time, or he is slipping in the polls - this evidence renders such arguments irrelevant in my opinion, anyway.
