Edwards ’08. For real.


Brian and I recorded a short video response to John Edwards’ YouTube campaign announcement. It was super-easy to do right from the web camera built into my laptop. Now that I am no longer a video blogging virgin, perhaps I’ll try it again some time.

Here’s one of my recent favorite John Edwards quotations (from his video blog entry “The Plane Truth“):

I’ve come to the personal conclusion that I actually want the country to see who I am, who I really am. But I don’t know what the result of that will be. But for me personally, I’d rather be successful or unsuccessful based on who I really am, not based on some plastic Ken doll that you put up in front of audiences.

If he’s serious about being true to himself before being true to the TV cameras, well, my boots will be a little lighter, but more importantly I could really feel good about working for that campaign.

    I was wondering if anyone else was going to appreciate the life-size Ivory in the corner. ;-)

    Very nice! I hope the Edwards campaign sees your encouraging and helpful suggestions. Have you mailed it to Mrs. Edwards?
