"The Senate hereby urges the President to invoke the 14th Amendment to avoid default on the nation's debts and obligations, and supports the President in the event he decides to exercise his constitutional authority to avoid default."

Let's go on offense here.

For the rest of America, the election of Kathy Hochul last night in a heavily Republican district was a watershed moment on the Ryan budget and plan to eliminate ("reform") Medicare. It is front-page news on almost all leading newspapers and leads or nearly leads most television news reports.

For a clue on how the wingnuts are treating the election results, look no further than the Drudge Report, which simply........ignores it. Didn't happen!

"American Idol" results? Check.
Gore got a "D" in a college class? Check.
Obama sips $1,000 wine in England? Check.

But any mention of the NY-26 race? Nope, didn't happen. Not newsworthy. At least according to the Drudge Report.

Kit Bond has been bragging about how he received "assurances" from Eric Holder that Holder would not prosecute Bush administration officials for any war crimes they may have committed. The question is, did Kit Bond commit a Blago-type crime by illegally offering to swap his vote for a no-prosecution pledge?
