Thank you John Edwards →
I just saw Edwards at the St. Paul rally. He was inspiring even though I’d seen his speech many times. I realized nobody else in the race was talking about ExxonMobil making $40 billion in profits, contrasted with how much…

The $300 gov’t check - the candidate I taped this morn called it “cookies and cake for a starving man.” Mmm, Wii! http://tinyurl.com/2g86ya
I’m grateful Edwards contrasts $40 billion exxon profits w/hunger and homeless vets.
How sad that being for the Constitution + Bill of Rights has to be a stated campaign issue.
My face was in serious pain with the -33 windchill raping my face.
Edwards “We do have a problem with global warming. But man you’d never believe it in MN tonite!”
OK bought my EVDO wireless action and a power inverter. FirstTech is setting up my 2.4GHz Macbook Pro, 7200 200GB drive, 4GB RAM. Woosh.
Edwards is here! Live http://theuptake.org
Stacker Manfield was briefly here at the Edwards rally, he had to pee I think.
We’ve got live video though on http://theuptake.org
Union thug not letting me into Edwards rally. My fake press pass would’ve done the trick…
Taped interview with congressional candidate Bob Olson, now trying to get EVDO card @ Sprint.
The UpTake will be doing a live videocast from Edwards’ rally tonight in St. Paul.

Heading to The Farm →
In Nashville, I’m going to interview my client friend and her dad, both down home conservatives participating in the Republican primary on Feb 5. From what I hear, the dad wishes Newt would run. That evening, I’m heading 60 miles…

Sure wish I had time to actually make my roadtrip t-shirt. http://www.flickr.com/photos/blogumentary/2225873508/
Why is uploading so dag-blasted slow today? Comcast, I curse you. As long as there’s no karmic price.
I’m embarking on a madcap citizen vloggy metal fueled roadtrip. Amped. http://tinyurl.com/29fwpw
