The Unknown Democrat Jumps In

A Democrat largely unknown outside his home state has entered the fray for the '08 presidential nomination:
MOUNT PLEASANT, Iowa (AP) -- Democratic Gov. Tom Vilsack chose the small town where his political career began to open his long-shot presidential campaign, pledging to make the U.S. "a beacon of hope" for all the world.

"I am running for president to replace the America of today with the hope of tomorrow and guarantee every American their birthright -- opportunity," Vilsack said in remarks prepared for delivery Thursday.

Just to show you how much work this guy has ahead of him, the San Diego radio anchor that read the report of his announcement pronounced his name "Valassic", like the pickles. Good luck with that.
