…love, war, running for president, and playing softball when you’re running for president. Semi’s *and* the finals are tomorrow. Here’s the recap (as reported by ABC’s The Note):
From the Dean campaign: “The Dean for America Campaign today defeated Senator Lieberman’s New Hampshire staff 13-7 in the opening round of the New Hampshire softball tournament. Proof that ‘the bat’ isn’t just an Internet gimmick, the people-powered Dean offense produced thirteen runs in the definitive victory. The team MVP was Chad ‘Cha-Cha’ Buldoc, who proved he had the power with a three-run home run and stellar defense at shortstop. Dorie Clark showed what a gutsy grassroots campaign is all about when she shrugged off an injury on a close play at first and went on to pitch a complete game win. Matthew Gardner, Dean for America’s softball coach who doubles as New Hampshire Press Secretary, dismissed suggestions that his squad had ‘peaked too early.’ ‘Any team would kill to be in the position we’re in,’ said Gardner.”
And a picture to boot (I think that’s my back, 2nd head from the left, as not too many ppl have that much neck hair):

We play Gephardt in the Semi’s. Kerry and Lieberman (as the wild card) are in the other semifinal.
