I had a chance to go over the wires, this morning, and look more closely at the returns. I expect I’ll post further about this later in the day, but as I went over it all this morning over coffee, one point became fairly clear; My original thoughts about Dean winning the nimination were of base.
However, my late thought about a Kerry/Edwards ticket seem to have been confirmed, at least insofar as it making sense… Edwards was a lot stronger in Oklahoma than the numbers would suggest… he basicly phone in Oklahoma, whereas Clarkbar’s been out htere for a week and more drumming up support… Clark just barely pulled it off.
On that basis, Edwards would be a reasonable choice as Kerry’s running mate if carrying Oklahoma was a numerical consideration….
Hmmm…..Well, I should qualify that….carrying the state at least among Democrats, I mean, since Kerry still trails Bush in that state by a wide margin. It still all comes down to the idea that no matter who the Democrats prop up, it really doesn’t matter.
