The RNC money story keeps getting better: now, it looks like consultants who have been
stiffed
by the RNC are starting to complain about strip clubs getting the cash that's owed to them.
Speaking of the RNC, you can add
Ben Stein
to the growing chorus of Republicans demanding Michael Steele's ouster.
CNN's Roland Martin
doubles down
on his condemnation of Virginia Governor Bob McDonnell's lauding of Confederate History Month. Examining tweets and emails criticizing his condemnation of Confederate History Month, he compares the rationales for the commemoration to the rationales made by terrorists in recent years.
The Republican confab over the last few days has yielded a few clues about 2012. It looks like you can count
Bobby Jindal
out. Interestingly, during the SRLC straw poll, both
Haley Barbour and Rick Perry
also removed their names from consideration.
Another vulnerable Democrat in 2010 catches a break. One of the Republican opponents to
Glenn Nye
in Virginia's 2nd district has left the GOP and will run as an Independent.
Former New Jersey Congressman Bob Franks
has passed away
at the age of 58, the victim of an aggressive form of cancer. Franks, a Republican, is perhaps best known for his unsuccessful 2000 Senate bid against Jon Corzine.
While the cable news outlets fall all over themselves every time three hundred teabaggers gather in a public place, it is worth noting that immigration reform rallies yesterday drew
five thousand
people in Seattle and thousands more in
Las Vegas
.
If it seems that there have been more severe earthquakes in the recent past, you can relax: seismologists say that this year is
not out of the ordinary
. The difference: this year's quakes have been near population centers.
The end of an era for sports fans: Texas Stadium, which housed the Dallas Cowboys for nearly four decades and had the novelty of a hole in its roof ("so God could watch his favorite team"), was
taken down
this morning.
