Why not Edwards? Retiring Senator, already rich, VP candidate at-issue?
People are talking about how to find a Senator to sign on with Conyers, but isn't Edwards just tailor-made for the part?

Where else are you going to find a retiring Senator with nothing to lose and a horse in the race like ol' "Two Americas" John?

I'm telling you, if the Democrats want to finally put the $8 million search and destroy mission on the Clenis to rest, this is the time and this is the fight.

Call Bush on his Black Box Bluff.

Just do it.

5. Frank Lautenberg has nothing to lose.
He's was pulled from retirement to the Senate because Toricelli had to resign. He's a one termer this go around and really has nothing to lose. Contact him:
