Default Webb out, Allen in.

Hey Waters, one of your favorite Senate candidates from the '06 cycle is back: George Allen in VA. Did you notice?

Mr. Macaca is back? Maybe he will throw a party for Nathan Bedford Forrest with Haley Barbour.

I have no idea what you're talking about. But I'm sure it was very clever.

Please Tex, don't pretend you don't know about one of the bigger political gotchya stories of the past week.

So.....kind of interesting that we could have THREE Mormon candidates for President next year. The Romster, The Huntsman, and the Orrin.

Hatch is actually putting out feelers about running, which I think is kind of funny, because the guy is apparently the only one who doesn't know that he doesn't have a constituency. I don't think he could win the Utah primary, much less any others.

The first Mormon president might be a Democrat. Someday.

I honestly have no idea. Yes, I could Google it, but I'm too lazy. I assume it's some lame dig at Allen, so why bother.

As for the Mormon candidate thing: the irony for me is, I'm not that excited about any of them.
