A Texan may be in the White House again
Speaker of the House Nanci Pelosi keeps touting Waco’s Congressman Chet Edwards as a ‘good choice’ to be Barack Obama’s running mate.
“I just wanted people to be aware of the extraordinary credentials of Chet Edwards. And I hope he will be the nominee,” Pelosi said. “He is an extraordinarily talented person. He is a champion for veterans in the Congress.”
The Dallas Morning News gives five reasons why Edwards makes a good VP. Note, however, the reader comments following the article.
Perhaps Pelosi really wants Edwards to be VP. Perhaps she’s merely giving him some free media exposure to help a future run for Governor or Senator in 2008.
