While all 3 top Democrats (Hillary, Obama, and Edwards) beat all the Republican candidates in a head to head race in the polls-- if Hillary happens to stumble (which I think is about impossible with the number of scandals she already survived) I think the nominee will be Edwards-- and in the head to head polling he does even better than Hillary against Gagliani, Romney, Huckabee, or McCain...

" Cousin" John will surprise you as time passes and the dead weight falls away. Me, I'm thinking VP right now.....then he's in place for a comfortable run at Pres. later on.

My relatives in Chicago thought that this was the plan all along. I hope it isn't. I do see real policy differences between Obama and the current republicans that I don't see with Hillary.
When you are running for president, you have to get votes and support from all kinds of people. The key is not allowing the bad make the policy when you are elected (like Clinton did with his pardons and Bush with energy policy).
As far as talking "Southern" to the audience, my wife always knows when I have talked to my family or friends in the linguistic south. She doesn't want me to talk that way to her. This southern accent is my heritage but my wife enjoys the more educated language and less accent. Personally, I believe the way some southerners use their dialect gives you more information than some people who use all kinds of words. My grandfather could impart more wisdom in the few "southern" words he used than any lawyer could do in court.

the more educated language ......more ' educated"....excuse me??????????
Understand what formal English is. Realize that if you write the way you talk, you most likely will end up using informal English. You even may find yourself committing grammatical errors! Remember, too, that talking informally can make the listener feel more comfortable, but writing informally can make the readers think less of you. Know when to use informal English and when to use formal English, and discover which style comes more naturally to you.
