Yahoo! News – Sen. Edwards: I Will Not Seek Re-Election RALEIGH, N.C. — John Edwards will not run for re-election to the Senate in 2004 so he can concentrate on seeking the Democratic presidential nomination, a state party official said Sunday. Well, that answers that question. No matter how you play it out, the Senators…

Tell me this isn’t guerilla marketing at its finest: (Click picture for an explanation of how this scoreboard appeared.) Oh – and while we’re linking to the official blog, according to this post, Howard Dean will be on all three networks tomorrow morning to react to President Bush’s remarks this evening on Iraq.

Here’s a photo from our group marching in the Bloomingdale Septemberfest parade: We were the only presidential candidate represented in the parade and the only Democratic contingent to boot!

Allow me to step out of my Dean partisan shoes for a minute and note two very promising developments in competitive campaigns: John Kerry’s campaign kick-off in Boston attracted 15,000 supporters at Faneuil Hall.

Over at Politics & Law (a great new blog by Jeremy Kissel), I saw this statistic (quoting a poll in the Rasmussen Report): [T]he Investor Class gap … exists for all Democratic candidates. Bush leads Dean 51% to 33% among Investors and 40% to 35% among non-Investors. … Just under half of all Americans belong…

We use VMware to build virtual machines for our sales demos. It’s a great solution — we can bundle entire demo environments on a single DVD (the environment includes the OS, the database, the applications, etc.) and get them out to sales people. But there’s one flaw in the system: the environments all have the…

Ed Cone — How often is God mentioned in the Constitution of the United States?

I sent my first e-mail to the Dean campaign on September 1, 2002. Increasingly frustrated with the lead-up to the Iraq war (Congress voted on the war resolution just a month later), I was intrigued by Governor Dean’s principled stance on our policy in Iraq. More importantly, I was impressed with his ability to articulate…
