"I need you on Tuesday," he tells his forward-leaning audience. "I can't change this country without you _ you and I can do it together, but I can't do it alone."

The first-term North Carolina senator could see his meteoric political career come crashing to Earth if he loses his neighboring state. In an all or nothing move, Edwards forwent a Senate re-election to pursue the presidency.
