John Edwards actually said...

This is a guy that can beat George Bush every place in America, in the north, in the west, in the Midwest and talking like this in the south...

This is a man who campaigned for the last week, indeed for the last two weeks, saying, I'm a southerner. I can win here in the south.

This is not George Bush's backyard. This is my backyard.

That's who's leaving the White House come November.
