John Edwards campaign...

...is coming to Seneca.

The democratic presidential candidate is making three stops today. I will be covering one of his stops. My newsman has been sick and I will be doing news duties today for the second time this week.

I covered President Bush's stop in Union County in 2000 when he was is a close race that year. And Bush ended up winning. While I can't say I'm a John Edwards supporter, I'm looking forward to meeting the him later today.

ADDED THURSDAY - 7:05 EST

So I was at the press only event in Seneca. I had talked to my Mom earlier and she thought I needed to ask how his wife (Elizabeth) was doing. During the press conference there were so many national reporter and other issues that the national press (I spoke up and asked one question) were covering I waited till the session was over and caught the former senator before he left. I told him my Mom wanted me asked him how his wife was doing. Edwards then shook my hand and said she was doing well and told me to tell my Mom that he appreciates her concern.

Another note...if you see any coverage on any of the cable news channels or network TV tonight the hand held microphone in the pictures is me getting sound.
