Fiat Lux

Overall, response to Kerry's naming of Edwards is as expected. The Swing States Project gets the honors for best or at least most original line so far:

Previously, I've called New Jersey a Jack Daniel's state. North Carolina is the exact opposite: A Dom Perignon state - if you see this state go blue on election night, break out the bubbly and start celebrating.

Naming Edwards to the ticket does, I think, increase that chance.

UPDATE: Digby also does an excellent job on Edwards, digging out a year-old analysis of the man that's worth a read.
