Not Davis

Matt Welch thinks Gray Davis has the inside track for the 2004 Dem presidential nomination.

I rather doubt it, because of the structure of the Dem nomination process and the fact that Davis is damaged goods (much more so than Nixon at a comparable stage in his political career).

Instead, a better bet is John Kerry (if, indeed, Hillary decides not to run; otherwise, she'll have the same advantages that would make Kerry the favorite if she's not in the race).
