Edwards in eastern Iowa with Bonnie Raitt and Jackson Browne |
|
John Edwards was in eastern Iowa yesterday with Bonnie Raitt and Jackson Brown. Here are some local media stories: Iowa City Press Citizen: http://www.press-citizen.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20071120/NEWS01/711200326/1079Grammy Award-winning musicians Bonnie Raitt and Jackson Browne took the stage in Iowa City on Monday night and sang songs inspired by patriotism and their presidential candidate of choice -- Democrat John Edwards.
"We had a choice of who to throw our guitars behind, and we chose John Edwards," Raitt said to an overflowing auditorium of more than 800 people in City High. Raitt said she admired Edwards' progressiveness and stance on many issues and thought he had the "stuff to follow through."

Press-Citizen / Matthew HolstQuad City Times: http://www.qctimes.com/articles/2007/11/20/news/local/doc4742746d5af26675475305.txtOn a day when Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama were in central Iowa arguing over who would be more experienced on the economy, John Edwards brought a pair of near-60 rock ’n’ rollers to Davenport on Monday, arguing he’s the real agent for change.

1. I wonder why the TV coveraged stressed 'aging" rockers? What that meant to be dismissive? |
|
Also the QC Times stressed" apair of near 60 rock n rollers" What is up with that?

2. They're younger than I am ! |
|
Not by much :P
Bonnie and Jackson are classic rockers with a great deal to admire about their careers and activism. It really surprises me they're not out with Kucinich?
The writer must be a Britany fan :silly: What a treat for those folks who attended this event.
