Bicycling fans probably don’t get why Michele Crowly thinks Lemond is a bad choice for athlete of the century in 1986. I, in fact, will argue with it, but it’s not weird. 1986 was the year he had to fight off his own teammate Bernard Hinault to win the race so he had far less […]
Criticism of Bush’s reckless budgets and supporting Blagojevich’s attempt at reckless budgets? I generally like Jones, but as Howard Dean has said, you can’t have social justice without balanced budgets because if you spend too much now, you have to cut later.
Via Kos. It’s almost never good: “Why don’t they get new jobs if they’re unhappy — or go on Prozac?” said Susan Sheybani, an assistant to Bush campaign spokesman Terry Holt.
Many blogs are happy with 350 hits a week.
Is David Axelrod who is doing media for Barack and John Edwards. I’m still amazed about how simple yet powerful the Barack ads were.
errr…Matt Yglesias argues this, but it is a gross misreading of the Illinois political scene and the national party in the state. The myth has grown that Hull was the frontrunner and had the organizational support because he had the ability to self-fund. Certainly some looked at that as a positive, but I think I’m […]
Some clown on Randy Rhodes show is saying how great Blagojevich is.
Kos has an interesting post up on the DCCC’s methods of weeding out credible candidates.

Since there is little way to weed out candidates who won’t […]
The speech on Tuesday night and the fawning of the press afterwards certainly makes it hard for the Illinois GOP to come up with a credible candidate. Obama already has $4 million and a 20 point lead over his last opponent and the runner up in the primary. Worse, Kerry is up around 15 or […]
I think this is a new low, though I have to admit the conspiracy theory that the UN made up conspiracy theories to discredit critics was pretty amazing. Today, Joyce pretty much equates child predators with environmentalists. I think that speaks for itself.
If this weren’t a joke, I’d love the idea of Newt Gingrich running against Barack Obama. I can think no better way to frame a national debate.
Really, I’m going to do one today! I promise.
Jack Ryan has officially withdrawn from the race to be the next U.S. Senator from Illinois. Hmmm..what made him decided on Wednesday to finally end his candidacy? And is Proft on suicide watch? UPDATE: I don’t think the link is working so Sharad in a Kos diary passes along these instructions: Go to www.elections.state.il.us Go […]
