1. He has his supporters in Madison. Edwards scheduled a fund-raiser n
Milwaukee I think in early fall. So far as I know that's the closest to Dane County he's been this past several months.

If he is the winner in Iowa tomorrow evening, you'll likely see him a lot in Wisconsin in the days preceding the Wisconsin primary.

2. If he gets here I will most certainly try to attend.
I have several friends that are also Edwards supporters.

5. It was such a high

I volunteered so I was close to the front and almost touched his hand at the end.

They set the whole rally up for that photo and it was a gorgeous fall day. I still have the newspaper from the next day with an even better photo than this, which shows the Capitol in the background and the whole four blocks is filled in with 80,000 people. They always do the last big Democratic rally in Madison before a presidential election. John Edwards did not come to this rally, but I sure hope he is there this time. I won't be disappointed if its Obama though. As long as we win!

Edit: The other guy is Bruce Springsteen.

6. I met him in Janesville in '04
I was part of a welcoming group that greeted him at the union hall.
Hopefully his candidacy will still be viable by the time our primary comes around this year.
