  • Good news, bad news: First, the good news: Democratic voters in my home district, Lousiana’s 6th (the fightin sixth!), outnumbered Republican voters 48 thousand to 38 thousand during Saturday’s primary to fill a seat left vacant when Republican Richard Baker skipped town to become a million dollar lobbyist. The bad news? My guy, Andy Kopplin, didn’t make the run-off.

  • Scott Pelley of 60 Minutes totally lets McCain off the hook for his flip flop on torture.
  • Too good to hope for: William “The Bloody” Kristol wants to see McCain pick Clarence Thomas as his VP. Please please please pretty please with sugar on top!
  • Speaking of daydreams, how’s this: Obama picks Clinton as his VP and then trounces McCain 538-0 in the Electoral College — then picks McCain as his Secretary of Defense.
  • Yet more daydreams: Mark Penn says Obama’s momentum is “broken.”
  • Sir Paul McCartney signs a deal to license the Beatles catalog to iTunes. Or did he? Either way, all that’s left is for American Idol to air it’s Lennon-McCartney theme week and reveal who the mentor is. Then younger viewers will hear the stuff and…buy it on iTunes! Smart guy, that Macca.
