Hillary Who?

by Mark Adams

(Via Taegan Goddard's Political Wire.)

Edwards and Obama Tied in Iowa: "A new Research 2000 poll in Iowa shows John Edwards and Sen. Barack Obama tied among likely Democratic caucus voters with 22% each. Iowa Gov. Tom Vilsack trails with 12%, followed by Sen. Hillary Clinton at just 10%. All other potential candidates are in the single digits.

Ms. Moneybags can't even get above the embarrassing favorite son, Vilsack's dismal numbers. I know, I know, it's way early. That, and who really is going to take those good looking metrosexual populist frontrunners seriously down the stretch.... but I can dream, can't I?

Dare I say it, after reading favorable comparisons of Bobby Kennedy to both Obama and Edwards recently, as well as riffs on JFK himself: these guys are the 21st century embodiment of those "little children" judged by the "content of their character" Martin Luther King spoke of so long ago.

Are they really the men we progressives have been dreaming of? Can we really become the nation we always thought we could be?
