Good show

John Edwards has now confirmed to appear at The 2008 Jefferson-Jackson Dinner, joining Hillary Clinton and meaning that, to date, two of the top three candidates in the race will be appearing in Georgia just a few days before the primary. Hopefully, Barack Obama will commit in the next day or so, and I expect he will.

This is good not only because it means we're getting top Democratic candidates speaking to Georgia voters, but it's important that we don't downplay the fact that the leadership at the State Democratic Party of Georgia worked hard to make this happen. This is a big get because, rather than write off this state prior to Super Tuesday, we've recruited them to come here and make their cases in person.

It's safe to say that regardless of who the candidate is in the general election, they probably won't swing back by because, well, this is still a pretty red state. However, the DPG worked hard to get them here for the J-J Dinner, and that's quite impressive.
