John Edwards throws hat into Presidential race tomorrow


I could have scooped the mainstream media with this info but my daughter CTLauryn had other plans for me...

Tomorrow, former Senator and 2004 Vice Presidential candidate John Edwards will announce his intention to run for President in 2008.

A harsh critic on President Bush's handling of New Orleans after Hurricane Katrina, Edwards will definitely put a spotlight on the failure of leadership from the Republican majority on a whole host of domestic social issues ranging from poverty and the failure of this god-awful administration to raise the minimum wage, to social injustice and discrimination.

Here's a video preview...



As many of you know, Edwards came to New Haven over the summer to campaign for Ned Lamont and in case you missed it, here are some highlights from the People-Powered Media press conference.
