I think he made the best choice. I think the reason for the discrepency is that in TPM, the VP is much more closely linked to their home state than in real life. In the Iowa caucuses, Edwards received many more votes than Gephardt.

When the US meddles, something actually happens.
One interesting thing, and I cannot find numbers for this at the moment but I know it's true, Republicans have more people who contribute to their campaigns, but a smaller average contribution. What did Republicans do to help Enron? Aren't there around 10 Enron execs in jail? Also, didn't most of their crimes take place when Clinton was in charge?
Teachers Union + anti-Religion = no school voucher support
If income is a deciding trend for voting, why isn't it more pronounced? One reason is that fiscal issues are not the only reasons to vote a certain way.
I think the reason is that the American people have rejected the ideals of the far left, for instance socialism and extreme pacifism.
I bet he appreciates this more than the Shareware Industry award nomination.
About 5 years ago I switched from being primarily a console gamer to primarily a PC gamer. Unless I have a high degree of confidence in a developer, I won't buy a game immediately when it is released. I get the most enjoyment out of most games right after I buy it, so waiting for patches to fix a game is just frustrating to me. Too many companies use patching capabilities as a crutch for poor software instead of a tool to enhance their game.<B
democracy is on a fast track to authoritarianism For most of America's history, abortion and gay marriage were illegal nationwide. Would you consider America to be authoritarian during that time period? If not, what exactly did you mean by that comment?
Was America ever an "authoritarian democracy"?
This sounds cool. Although, I think it means I will have to give up on doing anything constructive this summer.
Are you saying that Canada, Mexico, UK, and Norway are "associated" with OPEC? Certainly what OPEC does affects the world oil market and oil prices and availability in the US. 1. President Bush goes to great length to highlight the threat of terrorism to the United States. However, there hasn't been a large sca
OPEC or those associated with OPEC provide 60%, right? No, it's more like 30%. Canada, Mexico, Great Britain, and Norway are not OPEC members. Also, OPEC is not interchangeable with the Middle East. If you take Venezuela and Nigeria out of the equation, it's only 15%. I don't mean
What does the Democratic party propose as an alternative to reliance on Middle East oil as the main energy provider to the U.S.? The Middle east is not the main oil provider to the US. Link . Also, keep in mind t

The government doesn't pay out tax cuts. People pay taxes to the government. A tax cut means that someone who would have payed $10,000 to the government is only paying $9,000. The government didn't pay for that $1,000. The person earned it, and they get to keep it instead of giving it to the government. Fixing social security basically involves changing it from being a pay-as-you-go entitlement program to being a retirement savings vehicle. If
Doesn't everyone in the military have some form of security clearance?
The power that courts have is "soft" power. Their decisions are followed largely because of respect. Delivering this ruling has damaged this court's credibility.
John Edwards' speech about "Two Americas" was a centerpiece of his presidential campaign. While the message is not as prominent in the Kerry-Edwards ticket, Kerry has embraced it. The crux of the Two Americas message is that one America is working hard and struggling to pay bills, and the other America is awash in money and not contributing enough to society
John McCain is pro-life. I'm pretty sure McCain voted for DOMA, which was pushed for strongly by the religious right, but was also supported by the majority of Americans. I think McCain's disagreement is more procedural than philosophical.
The British legal justification for war against Iraq. I think though that when talking about the justification for the war, most people are referring to more of a moral justification ("Was it the right thing to do?") than a legal one. Hence why for ma

Bush went to war on the claim that Iraq was an imminent threat because they possessed and would use WMDs against us. He did not say Iraq was an imminent threat. I have a quote a few posts up where Bush says it would be a mistake to wait until the threat is imminent. <TABLE cellpadding=8 width=
