Barack Obama’s important announcement on Monday Night Football…

Check out Zephyr Teachout’s inaugural blog post on DraftObama.org, following the announcement that she had signed on with that effort as an advisor.

She writes…

I’ll learn a lot more in the next several months, and I hope my mind will remain open to other candidates. I have some concerns about Obama that my support of him will not stop me from raising. But, in the short term, someone who is willing to talk to a few hundred thousand evangelists about condoms is my kind of candidate, because I take that message as a challenge not just to evangelists, but to all of us, to dig our fists in the muddy world of reaching across difficult chasms and making hard, but important policy decisions — in the world where citizens of democracy belong.

And if you’re interested in helping plan how to support Obama in Vermont, please come on down to the Euro Gourmet on Main Street in Burlington, Thursday, December 14th, at 6 p.m.
