Democratic presidential candidate John Edwards faces two critical primaries Tuesday in his home region: Tennessee and Virginia. Edwards is trying to make the case that only he -- and not John Kerry -- can take on President Bush in the South. But some polls show Kerry leading in Tuesday's contests. Hear NPR's Adam Hochberg.
