Obama? Edwards? Clinton? Which of the three Democratic presidential candidates descending on this part of the Palmetto State this week should get top billing? Er, Danny Glover?From Thursday's Orangeburg, SC paper, The Times and Democrat:
"DENMARK, S.C. - Danny Glover, acclaimed actor and political activist, campaigned for Democratic presidential hopeful John Edwards Wednesday on the Voorhees College campus in Denmark. His visit came amid a flurry of political activity in The T&D Region ahead of Saturday's Democratic presidential primary.
The article did go on to include references to visits that Edwards (the actual candidate), Bill Clinton, and Barak Obama would also be in the area (Clinton, in fact, visited the Boro today, I'm told. Alas, I was not invited).
I suppose I shouldn't be too surprised that an actor would get the nod over mere politicians. This is America, afterall, and there is precedent.

Polls are open SuperD. My years in Chicago prompted me to get out there early but I'll be heading back to try again soon.
Thanks, Amy. I already voted absentee. Glad you're getting out there.
