Why a Bailout?

Wednesday, November 26th, 2008

Franken(steining) Voters in Minnesota

Friday, November 21st, 2008

With the balance in the Senate on the line, I’ve been trying very hard to watch what is coming out of our neighbor state of Minnesota.  And I’ve been somewhat appalled.  With only a few hundred votes seperating the two competitors out of several million votes, I expected there to be some court battles and [...]
