More on Alan Grayson
Description from Wikipedia:
Alan Mark Grayson (born March 13, 1958) is a Florida attorney and a Democratic politician currently running for U.S. Congress against Republican Congressman Ric Keller in Florida's 8th congressional district. In what many consider an upset, he defeated Charlie Stuart, who lost to Ric Keller in the 2006 election, and several other candidates in the Democratic primary held on August 26, 2008.
Grayson received a law degree (with honors) from Harvard Law School and earned a master's degree in government at the John F. Kennedy School of Government and is an alumnus of the Bronx High School of Science.
Grayson went on to work as a judge's assistant at the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals, working with current U.S. Supreme Court judges such as Ruth Bader Ginsburg and Antonin Scalia, and former U.S. Attorney General Robert Bork. In 1990, Grayson left the practice of law and founded IDT Corporation, a current Fortune 500 public company with $2 billion a year in sales. He also helped found the Alliance for Aging Research.
Grayson later returned to the practice of law, representing government contractors. Seeing "the bad driving out the good under the Bush administration", Grayson started a crusade against private contractor fraud in Iraq, which he calls "the crime of the century". He has filed suits against government contractors such as Dick Cheney's Halliburton and its former subsidiary KBR.
Grayson is married to Lolita Grayson. They have five children.
