So this weekend a local Dem candidate for Congress made the news by hosting a rally against assault weapons. Good for him! His district's up in the North Shore (very nice suburban neighborhood north of Chicago) and the good people up there are furious about the ban lapsing.
Lee Goodman's the candidate, challenging Mark Kirk, and I wish I lived in his district so I could vote for him. (I shook his hand on the Ravinia shuttle bus. Nice guy, standing in the aisle crowded in on the bus just like the rest of us poor slob music lovers.)
Well, I can't vote for him but I can spread the word and send him a little love in the form a candidate likes best, after votes. You too, huh?
Here's his website: Lee Goodman
