Priorities

Remember my encounter with Kucinich last winter? He complimented my watch (a rather funky swatch that ticks too loudly), then told me I had "amazing healing energy" (it was just a fever)? Well, I'm sorry to disappoint Dennis again, but I just ordered a new watch.

I decided to get the swatch-esque one offered on the Priorities Campaign website. I was checking out their website trying to figure out if there's a connection between PrioritiesNH and Iowans For Sensible Priorities, who just endorsed John Edwards. And voila, they are in fact all connected, with the parent organization lead by Ben Cohen, of Ben & Jerry's fame. This explains why their cool vehicles all have Vermont plates, which is a running joke around here at events. So, a toast to JRE with your favorite B&J flavor (mint oreo for me).
Am I jumping the gun to expect PrioritiesNH to announce an endorsement soon? Whenever & wherever it is, I want a front row seat! And I'll wear my new watch. I don't have the it yet, but it's coming soon along with my car magnet. Let's see if any candidates comment on this new watch.
