That's the Ticket.

This is an article that discusses how Senator John Kerry selected John Edwards as his running mate in his campaign for United States President in 2004. The little girl's voice on the line was not exactly what she expected--but the message delivered was just what Elizabeth Edwards had desired. As the wife of one of a handful of top contenders to be Democrat John Kerry's vice presidential running mate, Elizabeth was waiting anxiously by her phone in Raleigh, N.C., early on the morning of July 6 for her husband to call. Capping a top-secret, four-month search, Democratic presidential candidate John Kerry announced he had chosen Edwards, 51, a senator from North Carolina--and former rival for the Democratic nomination--to join his quest for the White House. Striking within minutes of the announcement, Republican operatives tagged Edwards as an inexperienced lawmaker who could claim little in the way of success, or even action, during his single term as a senator in Washington. Democrats, for their part, praised Edwards's energy--he helped raise $2 million for the Kerry campaign before he was even tapped--and hope the son of a Carolina mill worker will add regional appeal to the ticket.
