And now, a word from Mike Gravel...

As we Obama supporters celebrate an amazing week, I want to take a moment to share the words of a candidate whose fearlessnes and straight-talk I found refreshing in the early stages of this election. While it is a thrill to see Barack Obama take Hillary Clinton head on in the race for the white house, let's not forget some of the other voices who shaped this race. Mike Gravel may have had all the charm of an angry Grizzly Bear, but he also had some prescient reminders for us.
