Campaign Photography

For all the time I spent at campaign rallies doing my job, I never really had any pictures to show for it. This is one exception. The day before the Iowa Caucus, John Edwards had a rally with John Mellencamp, and since I wasn't really doing anything, I had my parents bring me my camera. I got to go to all of the press areas and take pics. It was a good show, and a great way for me to end that campaign. As we all found out, thank goodness we lost. This is a picture of Bruce Braley, a sophomore congressman from Northeast Iowa. One of my favorites from the Iowa delegation. To be entirely honest, this isn't one of my best shots from the rally. I just like him the best of anyone there.
