Andrew Golis

on John Edwards.  Ok, it’s not a sexual crush so much as a political one.  Maybe this is what it feels like to be inspired by a politician.  I don’t have much experience with that so I’ll let you know if that what it is, or if I just think he’s cute.

Anyway, what makes me write this is this article.  Check out this bit:

He brought a room of 700 Latino activists to their feet, whooping and clapping after a speech in which he asked them to envision a woman whose husband has been deployed to Iraq indefinitely and she is left to work two jobs to support her children.

“She thinks that she’s alone. . . . Here’s what we want to say to that woman and women like her all over this country. She is not alone. We see her, we feel her, we hear her voice, we will embrace her and we will lift her up,” said Edwards, a freshman senator from North Carolina. And if Sen. John F. Kerry (D-Mass.) is elected to the White House this fall, Edwards promised, that struggling woman “will have a president and a vice president who cares about her, who will fight for her. . . . Doesn’t she deserve that?”

Yes, and that, my friends, is exactly what being a Democrat is all about.
