“I doubt that’s even the low point in punditry this election season.”

No, that belongs to Liz Trotta.

“Regarding the MSNBC link, yeah Chris Matthews is real pro-Obama, with him criticizing the Senator for going to a diner and ordering orange juice instead of coffee (I’m not kidding).”

I doubt that’s even the low point in punditry this election season.

You mentioned CANADA! Yeah!

Obama needs 54% of the remaining pledged delegates, which is only possibly if Clinton’s supporters is PR are so disheartened many don’t bother to vote.

Clinton needs 87% of the remaining total delegates, which is only possible under the influence of narcotics.

Agreed on MLB. But what do you expect, the days of Kenesaw Mountain Landis are long gone. The Commissioner’s office is now completely corrupted and a complete tool of ownership. Fay Vincent, the last “objective” Commissioner of Major League Baseball, was on Jim Rome yesterday to plug his new book and basically threw Bud Selig under the bus for the steroids scandals and the travesty of Barry Bonds; which struck me as eminent good sense, but come on Fay, you were Commissioner when this was starting up, what about YOUR role?

As long as the cash register keeps ringing, don’t expect anything to change.

he was once again brought forth on Hannity & Colmes last night (5/27/08) as the non-partisan sole guest

Seriously? Rove is non-partisan?

Regarding the money issue, I haven’t seen it mentioned at all this election, but what *are* the current rules regarding money collected before the convention vs. money collected afterwards? And soft money vs. hard money?

I am not saying that with Obama’s millions of donors, money would be an issue, but given the rules I used to hear about, she could be correct at this moment in time.

As you note, there is no reason to believe anything Fiorina says.

Still, I really truly hope Fiorina becomes his running mate. I think that would lose him lots of the tech vote AND the business vote.

Wow, the link to “how the media works” is excellent.

Obama vs. Hillary I’ll leave up to the individual, but I’ve been pretty disappointed with links to the Politico that both sides have spread in the past six months. (I haven’t counted, but I usually see these links coming more from the pro-Obama bloggers.)

When bloggers call them drudgico repeatedly, they shouldn’t turn around and give them link love.

MLB vs. Little League: stupid lawyers battles. This is why most lawyers are a pox to getting anything done. Their favorite word is “no”, and that’s what they do instead of figuring out how to say “yes.”

Tasers should at the least, recategorized as deadly force. Still, props to the guy who “took” it silently, and have you seen the Chewbacca taser video?
