Okay, I don't get it
Sarah Palin to resign as Governor of Alaska. Why would she do this? As governor she obtained real experience and she has made it clear she’s looking for a national office.

The President went on a date, get over it
President Obama took his wife on a date Saturday and some people are going nuts. The RNC I can understand since they are the “ZOMG we lost, now what?!” party. But regular folks who are in arms about this need to get a life.

Caroline Kennedy should run for Senate
That is, Caroline Kennedy should wait until 2010 or 2012 and run for office the old fashioned way. Hillary Clinton came to New York and campaigned for that senate seat. She did not walk in and just say “Clinton!”, like she did in the presidential primaries. She worked the counties and listened to her future [...]
Now why didn’t Helen Thomas try that?
I don’t think this Iraqi journalist is going to be invited to the United States anytime soon. The President dodges well. It’s a fitting ending to President Bush’s last visit to Iraq.
