E.Edwards to join the Center for American Progress

Fantastic news. Yet another reason to love CAP (beyond Campus Progress, the proverbial well of inspiration for my collegiate lefty-ism, and their DC braintrust of liberal brilliance.)

And to love Elizabeth Edwards- how encouraging to see a campaign figure put her time/energy/legal experience where her mouth is. I'm on kind of an Elizabeth-kick after meeting her in the office a couple weeks ago (yes. she is just as badass in person, judging from our 1.5 minute exchange), but I think that the choice to advocate for health care in from a platform of wonkery demonstrates an admirable strength of commitment beyond scoring campaign points.
