Sen. Tim Johnson Goes On The Air
Sen. Tim Johnson, whose cerebral hemorrhage in late 2006 put him out of action in the Senate for a year, is now on the air for his re-election campaign. The ad features Johnson and his wife Barb talking about why he's running again:
"Besides, I wanted him out of the house," Barb Johnson says. To which Tim replies, "And I paid for this?"
Johnson is heavily favored to win re-election over the Republican nominee, state Rep. Joel Dykstra.

It's good to see him doing so well!
I wish Sen. Johnson and his family the very best.

Yay for Sen Johnson's recovery! And, Confound, I wouldn't be surprised if he helps push healthcare for all after his re-election. It's up to voters to keep reminding him (and all our reps) that this is an issue we won't give up on.
