(I just finished a lot of work on this so I'm going to post it even though this guy made a lot of the same points. I do think mine has some info his doesn't.)

I'm sure many of you have heard about the redistricting reform plan that's been proposed in Ohio and will be voted on this November. I'm not from Ohio but I love following elections, so I thought I'd do a little research and see exactly how the rules might affect Ohio's partisan representation in Congress if they pass. Read More

I can't believe this story hasn't gotten more play around here...maybe I missed it, and my apologies if I did, but I think this should be getting a lot more attention. I first read it on Andrew Sullivan, then saw it in the Durham Herald-Sun and now in today's Duke Chronicle.

Four days after Hurricane Katrina struck the Gulf Coast Aug. 29, unleashing her winds and floodwaters into the Big Easy and surrounding areas, Buder said he saw plenty of television coverage of the disaster but no relief in sight for the survivors.

"CNN is there, but the National Guard can't get there? There's something wrong with this," Buder said, adding that he called Byrd to tell him, "We've got to go, we just gotta go."

Conservative columnist Debra Saunders, on CNN's "Reliable Sources," about the Karl Rove comments:

"What Rove said was true! After 9/11, there WERE a lot of liberals trying to understand the root cause..."

Yeah, you're right. Why would we want to understand the root cause of 9/11? That would only help us target and destroy the people who brought about the attacks, prevent more attacks from happening in the future, and increase the safety of Americans. I seriously wonder if these people can hear what they're saying.

Ol' Henry is hunched over his microphone like Strom Thurmond 10 or 15 years ago, mumbling through his cards and pausing to take a closer look through his thick glasses, his crumbly voice cracking on every third word.

Get a spirited opponent who actually cares about his district like Melissa Bean, and Hyde will be as gone as Crane.
