Edwards, best general election candidate in North Carolina (wins)

Raleigh, N.C. – Although he has trailed Hillary Clinton in recent North Carolina polls
for the primary, John Edwards would make the strongest general election presidential
candidate in the state according to Public Policy Polling’s newest survey.

The poll tested nine potential general election matchups. Edwards led Rudy Giuliani 48-
43, led Mike Huckabee 50-43, and led Mitt Romney 52-40. Edwards gets more
crossover support from Republican respondents than the other Democratic front runners
do, and he also gets a higher percentage of support from Democrats.

The survey also found that Republican candidates led all potential matchups with either
Hillary Clinton or Barack Obama. Giuliani leads Clinton 46-39 and Obama 46-43.
Huckabee leads Clinton 48-42 and Obama 47-42. Romney leads Clinton 46-42 and
Obama 45-42.

Of course, the same principle applies to Virginia, Ohio, Florida, Tennessee, western states, among others.

Wait until the press gets a hold of his record and his inexperience, then it won't matter.


I'm so tired of hearing about John Edwards, I could spit. I really am. He's worthless.

This is encouraging. :thumbsup:
