STLtoday - Missouri Democrats see Edwards as lure for rural voters
Another reason why Edwards was the best choice. It was iffy whether Gephardt could deliver Missouri, but judging from this report it is more likely Edwards will. Elsewhere today I read of a quote of George Bush's when asked the difference between Cheney and Edwards. Bush said "Dick Cheney could be president". Sounds more like a threat to me. If Dick Cheney is the example of what it takes to be president, we are in a big deal of hurt.
