Look at what just arrived from the HQ of the Democratic candidate for governor -ah, whatshisname?

Scudder Parker to Make Statement on Early Childhood Care and Education

Montpelier, VT- Democratic gubernatorial candidate Scudder Parker will present his vision to build a future for Vermont in which the care and education of our youngest Vermonters is a high priority, at a press conference on Wednesday, August 23 starting at 9:30 AM on the Statehouse steps in Montpelier.

Hey, who was just noticing that here it is late August, and Mr. Parker has had zippo in the way of press conferences on the Statehouse lawn whacking the incumbent?

Gov. Douglas' has his regular weekly press conference scheduled for 10:30 on the nearby Fifth Floor.

What a coincidence!

Let the games begin!
