So, Has CBS Fired David Letterman Yet?
Remember — just days ago — when the wingers proclaimed that they were going to get David Letterman fired over the Palin thing?

Fox News Revs Up July 4 Tea Party Push
The tea parties held on April 15 were fairly spontaneous, but the organizers promised a whopper of a showing on July 4. They’ve had a lot of time to plan and organize and their megaphone, Fox “News,” is stoking the machine. The turn out had better be huge — millions of people — otherwise I’m going to regard them as, ah, nothing more than a focus group.

Fox Nation Mocks Al Franken When Announcing his Senate Win

Al Franken Wins
In a unanimous decision, the Minnesota Supreme Court has “ordered that Democrat Al Franken be certified as the winner of the state’s long-running Senate race.”
So now we wait. What will Norm Coleman do? Take it to a higher court, or not? (I think he’ll look like a somewhat nutty sore loser if he keeps pushing this. Time to accept that you lost and to move on Norm.)
UPDATE: Phew. Coleman conceded. Good for him.
What’s a “Black Handshake?”
Is it kinda like a terrorist fist bump?
What a Coincidence?
The winner of Mitt Romney’s “Free and Strong America PAC” essay contest happens to live in IOWA and he looks as if he just might be old enough to caucus in 2012.
What a coincidence!
