On the Virge

There always seems to a seminal moment in the career of many leaders. An instance where clarity of voice welds with singularity of purpose. The most recent of these has culminated in an overwhelming response from the net roots. Captured forever on the blogosphere in this video.



Mayor Bernero seems to be just the kind of person that is able to share how big 3 employees are building the future of our nation, and not just our state. Not to mention fight for the common worker in a system that has for the last decade been tilted for the large corporations. A voice that will not be shouted down by the Rush Limbaugh talking points of an obviously partisan commentator in the conservative media.
To simply point this out to no end would be sufficient for most. But as I type these words I wonder what could be the future for this man. Where he will be led to further the goals of an increasingly (and necessarily so) progressive nation.
In a state that has been been placed upon the back burner in the minds of many, it is my hope that there are a few others that may consider that we may be on the Virge of a great comeback.
