• From the Political Wire:
  

  When asked to name their favorite electronic gadgets, the AP notes Sen. Hillary Clinton, John Edwards and Fred Thompson picked their iPods while Sen. Barack Obama, Mitt Romney and Gov. Bill Richardson chose their Blackberries.
  
  Rudy Giuliani was the least technologically advanced of the group picking his CD player.

  
  If only his other policies were stuck in the 90's . . .
  
  
• It's a relief to know that Mike Huckabee thinks that a consenting sexual relationship between two responsible adults of the same gender isn't quite as bad as fucking a corpse.
  
  
• Apparently there's talk of Chris Dodd ousting Dead Fish Harry Reid as Senate Majority Leader. I would have a part in his honor if that happened. No one would come to that party, but I'd have it anyway
  
  
• Teflon:
  

  This Larry Craig guy. First he’s able to elude that embarrassing recant on his pledge to resign, then he dodges those Ethics Committee hearings McConnell told us we’d get, then EIGHT MEN relate their stories of gay sex with this hypocrite, and where does it bring him today? To the White House as an official guest for a signing ceremony. [Pause, so as to consider]. Larry Craig is the best politician of our era.

  
  
  
• If Bloomberg runs for the presidency under a centrist platform, does that liberate the Democrats to be actual liberals? Or do they stick to the MOR course and hope that their brand of heavily watered down liberalism sound better than Bloomberg's?
  
  
• I think Bob Kerrey has managed the unexpected feat of endorsing both Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama for president.
  
  
• Tom Tancredo has dropped out of the presidential race. I am very much hoping that his absence from the national conversation in this election will allow some measure of sanity to return on the topic of immigration.
