Felicia and I went to hear Jamie Raskin speak at a local high school Saturday night (also present, Congressman Jesse Jackson Jr. of Illinois, son of the Rev. Jesse Jackson). As it happens, we live in the district he's running for the State Senate in. (though I know you know this. I'm sure F. has told you ALL about him!) :-)
Jamie Raskin rocks. In fact, I'm going to steal that quote to use on Daily KOS and Booman Tribune... In fact, Congressman Jesse Jackson Jr. was pretty damned inspiring too... That was a good occasion, to meet a number of local progressive candidates and get a sense of where they stand on issues of importance.
Felicia did say a lot about Raskin at rehearsal last week. (At the time I failed to make the connection to this quote that had been sitting in the queue for a while. Silly/forgetful me.)
