I’m in the midst of editing my new Blunt video, but had to pop in with great news! Alan Grayson  may run for a newly created seat for Orlando (not his old seat), per WFTV:

ORLANDO, Fla. — WFTV learned on Monday that former U.S. Congressman Alan Grayson is running for office again.

On Monday, Grayson said he doesn’t plan to do anything different. He said he’s running again because of all the people who have reached out and asked him to. Grayson already raised nearly $100,000 in donations before filing his paperwork on Monday.

“We need somebody who’s gonna stick up for what’s right. Somebody with guts,” Grayson said.

1. Our voices matter.

2. Sometimes they’re even listened to.

Now back to editing hell, already in progress.
