Lance has his Priorities Straight
ArchPundit
Lance Armstrong will win his 5th Tour regardless of security threats. Well, he didn’t exactly say that, but I did.
January 2003
Jacob Levy announces
He is writing for TNR online with is first column on the Individual Indian Money trust fund. It is excellent.
The List so far
Is over at my favorite parody site, the Illinois Leader.
While I enjoy making fun of them, they have had excellent coverage of the scandal.
Blogstudio Ad
The site has been slow for a couple days because of some upgrades, but let me recommend Blogstudio for those looking to start a blog or change who they use. Overall, I’m very happy with the service and quality of the site. I find it more intuitive to use than Blogger and certainly more reliable. In addition, comments and RSS Feed is available for $15/year and stats are coming. I’m sure there will eventually be a price increase, but I expect that will still be lower than Blogger Pro.
For those looking for more advanced features, the also offer web site hosting.
Most important is that they respond very quickly to me when I do have a problem.
Testimony over.
Post at Political State Report
on the likely return of Straight Ticket Voting in Illinois. Link is to the general site because you should be reading it anyway.

Hill Spotlights Fitzgerald Troubles
I’m not sure there is anything new to this story for readers of this blog, but The Hill covers the potential primary challenge for Fitzgerald. The only new news is Jack Ryan is definitely out. The State GOP needs to figure out how to get that guy to run for something because he would be a very formidable candidate.
That is, if the Trekkies don’t get to upset about the whole Jeri thing…
Just wondering
Kevin McDermott out there?
Chris Mooney?
Drop me a note if so. I’m just curious.
Blagojevich Serious about Ethics?
Who knew? But Rich Miller at the Capitol Fax is reporting that he is making those taking appointed positions empty out their political funds.
This might seem like common sense to those outside Illinois, but this is entirely new ground for a state that shrugs off most corruption.
My apologies
To Steven Den Beste who I snarkily made fun of the other day, but he demonstrates a good sense of humor about himself here. And he sent me the Reader’s Digest Version!
