Bush had the same amount of foreign policy experience as governor of Texas as Clinton did as governor of Arkansas, perhaps more if he had to deal with Mexico just south of the border. Few governors have much in the way of foreign policy experience, but, if you look at who won the presidency during the 20th century, you'll find that the majority of them were governors, not senators.
Not that a VP selection really counts for much when it comes to presidential elections, but Edwards is a complete lightweight when compared to Cheney. Cheney served time in congress, was a chief of staff in the White House, and served as Secretary of Defense. By comparison, Edwards has spent part of one term as a Senator, and didn't even bother to show up a large percentage of the time.
Vote as you see fit, but at least use rational reasoning when you do.
