Jane Norman at the Register has a story on the Environmental Defense poll released yesterday.
Edwards, a former senator from North Carolina and the winner of the 2004 caucuses (sic), was picked as the early preference of 36 percent of likely caucusgoers in the survey.
Uh, note to Jane to double check her caucus returns. Here's the numbers for the poll:
Interesting, but it was conducted October 12-19, two whole months ago before the Vilsack announcement and more significantly before the present round of Obamamania. Why was it held so long? And I'm sure the Kookcinich supporters will say he was deliberately blacked out by the media conspiracy. Anyone think Vilsack will get the clue soon?
Real People alert: Obama's Monday Night Football bit was number one on the viral video sites yesterday, ahead of all the Star Wars outtakes and nipple slips. When a politician outranks boobies, something big is happening.
All good wishes to Senator Tim Johnson. It's sad that so many thoughts turn so fast to the political implications rather than the human element, but that's how this business works. Johnson has devoted his life to political public service and I'm sure his loved ones, in addition to their purely personal pain, share the same political concerns.
No link love for all the Pat White hagiography in today's papers. Instead you can look back at how he dropped the ball on the Eric Shaw case.
