Edwards did win the South Carolina primary. The guy was too much of a novice, an unknown, to win; Senator Kerry has been around 20 years and the people wanted a known quality. North Carolina is a rock-solid Republican state, and it's kind of strange that someone like him could even win a Senate race there. I have family in North Carolina, and they are diehard Republicans. They are always teasing my mother, who's a diehard liberal. They are on my mother's side of the family. No one ever expected Senator Kerry to carry the Carolinas. Democrats don't carry them when they win. They went for Bush Sr. and Dole when Clinton was getting elected. I don't expect conservatives to like the guy as he's not exactly one of them. His ADA score is lower than Kerry's (70% to Kerry's 85%), thus he's less liberal, but still too much of one to appeal to rock-solid conservatives. C'est la vie.
