Rep. Artur Davis (D-AL), was part of the first sharp exchange of the Democratic presidential campaign during CNN’s Late Edition yesterday. Mr. Davis said,

“The last exchange you’ve heard is exactly why Barack Obama’s candidacy is so important. We’ve just spent two minutes arguing about who did what in 1993,” Mr. Davis said. “Democrats will not win the election in 2008 if we are frozen in an argument about who did what in 1993, who did what between 1993 and 2001. That’s a stale argument for a lot of people. As much as I admire the Clintons, people are hungering for a new discussion in this country, and they want to look forward.”

It’s encouraging to see Artur out there in the national media and bodes well for his political future both inside and outside the state.
