Looking adorable and happy, John Edwards went on Larry King last night and presented an irrefutable argument for fundamental change:
I was in Brussels at NATO meeting with a whole group of NATO ambassadors and hearing their perspective on this. I just believe that these countries around the world, whose cooperation and alliances we need, believe that in order for them to have a fresh start with America, we're going to need a new president to do that.  Now, they're not going to want to say this very vocally, of course, but the reality is that in order for us to reestablish old relations and to establish new relationships, I believe we need a new president.

The last time this claim was made, it was made so sloppily that the GOP twisted it (successfully) into an issue of "foreign involvement in domestic affairs" – very scary stuff indeed!  It would appear that Edwards will be able (and willing) to finesse this point with (hopefully) more success.  In my worthless opinion it's the strongest reason for Republicans who are primarily concerned with international affairs (as opposed to domestic social issues and/or fickle economic considerations) to vote for Kerry.
