The VEEP Stakes
Obama bunts with his selection of Biden.

The Obama camp can’t attack her lack of governing experience because even though she has been governer of Alaska for less than two years, she still has more governing experience than Obama. [...]
Getting Stuck on Stupid
An aqauaintence issued a small challenge, well, more like a “double dog dare ya” than a challenge.
He had been posting on a site and was running across people who could use a little one-on-one help. He referred a couple of them to me and then he sent me a private message.
