  • The Carpetbagger Report rounds up polling on how voters feel about McCain's age. Given that Democrats are unlikely to emulate Republicans in making this sort of thing into a big campaign issue, it will be interesting to see how it plays - but voters do care.
  • Holy crap. A CBS reporter tells a piece of the kind of ticky-tacky crap that gets reported non-stop about Democrats - but about McCain! I don't  actually care how he eats pizza, but if I had to hear about Kerry's cheese steak and Obama's gutter ball, I want to hear it about McCain.
  • Ha ha ha. Check out the blurbs supposedly promoting Doug Feith's new book.
  • Barack Obama's mother was a fascinating woman.
  • Swing State Project is continuing to tally first quarter fundraising reports. Lots of Dems putting up good numbers.
  • With Andy Unanue out of the NJ Senate race again and the Republican candidate still up in the air, the Blue Jersey timeline of Republican candidacies is a necessity.
  • Huh? Why the heck is Bill Clinton dwelling on the Bosnia landing and snipers story? Including repeating parts of Hillary's version that others have contradicted?
  • Energy Star rated clothes, or something like it? I guess it couldn't hurt...
  • Gallup puts Bush's approval rating at 28%, his lowest ever and one point below his father's lowest approval rating. Only two presidents have ever had a lower approval rating than Bush in the Gallup poll. - smintheus
