Edwards Disses Kerry

I don't have time to do an entire post on this. But if this isn't a would be VP saying he thinks he has more to offer than his boss, nothing is. There must be real trouble in the Kerry / Edwards huggy-kissy tour the country together club. No wonder they're keeping Edwards under wraps.

IMUS: I had a bunch of people on my staff—and who are all pretty incompetent, by the way—and the MSNBC staff, go through everything that you said during the primary process to see if we could find something horrible that you had said about Senator Kerry.

EDWARDS: Yes. I bet you did.

IMUS: And we couldn’t find anything. But at some point...

EDWARDS: You couldn’t find anything?

IMUS: Not really, no. Other than you came from a working-class thing and the implication was that he didn’t, which is fine. But at some point, there was a point where you thought you’d make a better president than he did. When did you decide that that was not the case, or have you?

EDWARDS: I think that John Kerry will make a great president.

IMUS: No, but that doesn’t answer the question.

EDWARDS: I know it doesn’t answer the question.

(LAUGHTER)

IMUS: Why wouldn’t you want to do that?

(LAUGHTER)

EDWARDS: What, are you like Russert now?
