Thanks, Zell!

Wow. Who knew we would incur such a debt of gratitude to crazy ol' Zell Miller?

Joe Lieberman's endorsement of Republican John McCain disqualifies him as a superdelegate to the Democratic National Convention under what is informally known as the Zell Miller rule...


Read the whole story at the Capital Watch blog-- but yes, great news for the Nutmeg state!



Update: And here's a special blast from the past: our friend Zell Miller was the hit attraction (for the kids anyway) of our BBQ for America, way back in September 2004. Remember when... Zell had just given his rousing speech at the GOP Convention... some clever ditty about our candidate leaving our armed forces equipped with nothing but spitballs... yeah, that was fun.

GObama in Woodbridge

Super Fat Tuesday primary results are in for Woodbridge:
Woodbridge dems = 1418 total ballots
Obama = 707
Clinton = 686
Edwards = 15
Dodd = 3
Gravel = 2
Kucinich = 2
Biden = 1
Richardson = 1
Uncomitted = 4


The candidate himself says it so well:

"Tonight, we know one thing for sure -- our time has come, our movement is real, and change is coming to America.

At this moment in history, the stakes are too high and the challenges too great to play the same Washington game with the same Washington players and expect a different result.

This time must be different.

There will be those who say it cannot be done. But we know what we have seen and what we believe -- that when ordinary people come together we can still do extraordinary things.

Yes, we can."
