Jason Kander for state rep in Missouri

You're probably wondering why I'd blog about this, but Jason is a former classmate of mine from GULC. He's a cowboy hat-wearing, big red pickup truck-driving, military haircut-sporting progressive democrat. I didn't know him all that well in school, but I knew him well enough to know he's got the goods.

So check him out. He has a campaign website up and running. Not many bells or whistles -- or pages -- but I expect that will change as he raises money. Which you can help him do on his site.

And even if you're not interested in donating, if you're interested in politics, check him out. He's gonna go places. When others are wringing their hands and maybe talking about problems, he does what he thinks needs to be done -- volunteering for combat in Afghanstan, co-founding Heartland Democrats (a PAC), running for office. How many of us can say that?

Jason:

"I'm running for State Representative because the Republican regime in Jefferson City has failed us. I know we can do better for Missouri's families if we elect representatives that are ready to lead and willing to fight."

Like I said, he's got the goods.

Go Hoya Lawyas!
