Rumors are that he will make the official announcement around Christmas. Brilliant! His main issue is poverty and he'll anounce from the city that became the symbol of poverty in America (not that it does not exist everywhere - but it is a symbol) and remind everyone about the post-Katrina plight of the poor, the GOP inability and unwillingness to do anything right about the disaster, and the Republican racist rhetoric about the "welfare queens" and "God smiting New Orleans because of homosexuality".
