The Kerry and Edwards kids are on CSPAN talking to university students about the campaign. Struck me as preaching to the converted, but so it goes.
They keep saying "politicized" as in "9/11 should not be politicized" or "protecting the environment shouldn't be politicized" and I'm struck by how mind-bending saying things like that is. They are in a political forum, talking about a political campaign, being asked political questions - and most importantly discussing issues that truly affect and influence people, or to put it another way, political issues!
I think if you have a mic in your hand and you're not rapping, you shouldn't talk much about the thing you're talking about being politicized, unless you plan on shutting up right afterwards.
