Profiles in Courage

Stephanie Dziczek, a student at Holmes High School in Covington, Kentucky won some kind of "Profiles in Courage" essay prize contest from the JFK library with this piece lauding Dean's decision to sign the nation's first law permitting gay civil unions. I'm interested in this because it seems to me that Dean's best hope in defusing the criticism he'll inevitably take for such a controversial action will probably be to try and do a bit of political jujitsu and say that his willingness to make tough, unpopular calls shows he's the sort of decisive, courageous leader the American people need in the White House.
