2. I'm pretty sure he is (of the candidates, that is)

it didn't start exactly at 7:30, and then C-Span was having some technical difficulties, but then Sen. Harkin spoke, and now Dodd is up.

3. I heard bush. Was that the technical difficulty?

It was here. I turned it off. Now I'm hearing Dodd again.

10. John Edwards is very pro-union.

No one speaks on behalf of the workers right to organize like he does. He hit it out of the park tonight.

I will proudly caucus for him again in January.

11. He's from my home town! I'm so proud of him!! Sure we could get someone like him

here in East Tennessee. I feel like I'm living in an alternate universe sometimes.

12. Now Mr. Microphone is up

aka Joe Biden. He got lukewarm applause as he should have. Yak yak yak. This guy needs to quit the race and concentrate on being a Senator from Delaware and ending the Iraq war, which he ain't doing now.
Now some may ask, why aren't I as an Iowan and a Democrat not at this dinner? Well, I have a couple of reasons. First and foremost is because I have a job which requires me to work on Saturdays. That's ok, someone needs to. Secondly, I haven't got the money.
Enough of that. Mr. Microphone just said, "This war must end". I agree. So why didn't he vote to end the fucking war?
