Because Jed is one of the 2,000 homeless people in Dane County.

At the beginning of the semester, my poli sci professor offered my class an intriguing, albeit somewhat unsettling method of understanding which candidate \average Joe"" voter will select as their president on Nov. 2. This method, in the form of a simple question, is quite telling: Which candidate would you rather sit down and have a beer with?
