No Edwards Lost it. If the people he Grew up with really thought anything of him he would have won is own county!
In case you've forgotton, John Kerry was the Democratic Nominee for President this year.
Well that didn't stop all the talk in July about a possible Dem pickup of Virginia and North Carolina now did it?
No it didn't.
Which is beside the point (and I'm not going to get involved in a pointless flame war over Wake County, NC)
I'm not going to get into an argument about Wake County, either. Your point was that Kerry prevented a Dem victory in the county. However, weren't some members (I'm guessing you were one of them) saying that Edwards would provide a boost to the ticket that could help pickup VA and NC regardless of who was on the top of the ticket?
