GI Joe Congressman

Our friends at Air America have teamed up with the Daily Kos to to highlight Democratic military vets who've decided to take another step in public service and run for Congress.

Each Tuesday night, Air America's Majority Report will be joined by Markos Moulitsas of the DailyKos.com to profile a Democratic veteran now running for Congress. The two have also developed a Fighting Dems website which is currently spotlighting four veterans of Iraq who are now running for elected office.

Take a moment to check out these candidates, as well as one of our favorite Democratic veterans - Bruce Roemmelt. Roemmelt, a Vietnam veteran, is running to replace the corruptive Bob Marshall in Virginia's 13th Delegate District. Marshall has delivered little for his district, instead choosing to focus on advancing Quixote-ish anti-gay legislation.
