Some things I think I think:

I wish I were heartbroken about McCain losing.
I wish I were even remotely happy about Obama’s victory.
I wish there were even a little bit of investigative journalism into Obama’s and Biden’s backgrounds like there was with Palin.

subprime six

Have you heard of The Subprime Six Scandal?  It’s, uh, interesting, to say the least.  Imagine a bunch of politicians ripping the mortgage industry like nothing else, only to find that a number of them have been getting “favored status” VIP loans from those very same people they are ripping.  The sad thing about this [...]

Russert

Tim Russert has passed away.  As far as political news correspondents are concerned, he’s one of the few that I actually really liked and looked forward to listening to.
