My 15 seconds of fame

My PBS news interview aired Friday night. As I predicted, Judy Woodruff used a particular quote I gave her about Republican Florida Gov. Charlie Crist: If he believes the way to help Floridians is to increase government spending, then "he just needs to be a Democrat."

That quote came from this post, where I mentioned that Crist was "literally embracing Democratic ideals of spend, spend spend." Pretty cool that it ended up setting the tone for Woodruff's national TV news story.

In the end, my 15-minute interview turned into an only 15-second clip on PBS NewsHour, but it was still exciting. And best of all, the producers spelled my name correctly!

Here's the clip below. I'm on around 2:45.
