If this is the test that voters will use to elect a president/vice president ticket, we are in sad shape. The argument that Edwards brings 'populist appeal' means nothing. What is 'populist appeal?' What are his qualifications? What has he done except get rich as a trial lawyer? I think the business community will not favor Edwards.
"'Just having a Southern accent is a good thing in the 'purple' states,' says Ted Arrington, a political scientist at the University of North Carolina at Charlotte. 'People assume that a Southerner with an accent is more moderate than a liberal from Massachusetts.'"
