Today, Former North Carolina U.S. Senator and 2004 Democratic Vice Presidential Nominee, John Edwards officially announced his candidacy for president of the United States in 2008. Edwards is a major candidate and could perform very well later. The latest polls show him 2nd or 3rd in nationwide polls, tied for 1st in the important Iowa Caucuses, and in 3rd in NH. Edwards can use electability to help him since his main opponents are black and female and there has never been a black or female president. We will continue to watch Edwards and his elecctability factor. In other presidential news Delaware U.S. Senator Joe Biden confirmed what we already new yesterday. He will officially start his presidential campaign in Janurary of next year. Biden has stated that he will likely run for president in 2008 since late 2005 early 2006.
