are concerns about "lack of experience" really proxies for concerns about gender and race? He pointed out that by the time the two would run, they'd have more experience than any of the last few presidents.
Interesting question. Crawford didn't think that to extensively to be the case, and made the argument that in the states Dems need to win, it likely won't matter anyway.

4. when you concider that Edwards has less experience that the other two.

9. I'd be willing to bet that the
Democratic party will run Clinton & Obama (in that order for President & Vice president) in 2008. Watch....Bush has killed the GOP.

12. Edwards is running an interesting campaign. He is postioning himself very well.
That would be a bet that I'd take, although if Gore throws in his hat, all bets are off, for me! MKJ
