What about John Edwards for DNC head?

[BluegrassDem]

He doesn't have a job, and he'd be perfect for bringing the party together! By the way, does anyone know what he will be doing now?

1. His name was m entioned in the first days after the election,

but I haven't heard any thing since, I am sure there are plenty offers out there..

[Tweed]

2. What leadership has he shown?

Edwards wouldn't make a good candidate for the DNC. He is a one-term Senator and part of a losing Presidential big twice over. He doesn't strike me as the best strategist either. There's a reason he didn't run for his Senate seat and he was part of two losing campaigns. He's a smooth talker and that's about it. The DNC chair needs to be a mover and shaker. There's a great deal of behind the scenes work to do. Edwards just isn't that kind of politician.

3. He'll be too busy being Vice President of the United States!!!!!

7. Dissent in part. Concur in part. Edwards' populism is genuine.

And I think it's a real asset to the party. But I agree that any strategic skills remain are not yet well-developed.

4. I think he'd be great but he may need a break, to help his wife.

6. Exactly what I was going to say

I want his vision, but his place is with his family right now.

5. John Edwards' Farewell Remarks To Senate, on C-SPAN Right Now.

8. He's building a house near Chapel Hill. Uni Prez? Law Professor?

9. That would be good for him. Maybe he could write a book about

foreign policy or something that would bode well for him in '08.
