People cause global warming; wars kill people. Ergo...

Trace Urdan: But why then did Anita Hill turn the tape over the Justice Department of all things?

Because when Democrats don't like something, they always turn to the government for help.

NY GOP backed liberal Democrat-turned-Republican Bloomberg as a successor to Guiliani for the simple reason that he was willing to finance his own campaign. If this or anything else makes Bloomberg a viable candidate against Obama in 2012, then Paul Krugman is right, for a change, and the GOP "is a party of stupid." For a really mind blowing combination, how about Bloomberg/Romney in 2012? Oy.

Diane Ellis, Ed.:

there's very little Democrats can do to improve their odds of winning in next week's election.

If you mean short of outright voter fraud, then I agree.

James Lileks:

she has devised ways to slip out of her $15 million-a-year prison

Did her limo driver help her escape or did she devise and execute the plan all by herself? In either case, as one of the great unwashed, I marvel at her bravery.

They have grossly oversampled Democrats -- assuming that their turnout this time will make them a larger percentage of the electorate than in 2008.

Apart from the oversampling issue, in this election cycle, is there a bigger than usual reluctance on the part of non-Democratic voting individuals to participate in polls? If so, that would, presumably, work in the favour of GOP but is that indeed a big deal?

Peter Robinson: Today?

Rejoice. ·

I can't. Reading stories, on Drudge and other sites, like "I went to vote and Harry Reid's name was already checked," "North Carolina: I voted Republican and machine checked Democrat," makes me very, very nervous. Or am I just paranoid?

Did anyone catch Obama urging Hispanics to vote, h/t gatewaypundit.firstthings.com, so they can "punish" their "enemies" and... "reward" their "friends?" Would Robert Reich consider this working hard enough for the things Obama believes in or should he try harder yet? Is that post-racial, non-partisan enough?

Ragnarok

It is touching to see that Democrats like Reich are still kidding themselves that Obama is on the right course. November 3rd will tell us if the rest of the country shares their delusion.

What a rookie mistake. Why didn't he opt for an interview with Christiane Amanpour instead?

Emily Esfahani Smith, Ed.

I didn't know what arugula was until after the Obama gaff.

Me neither and I still confuse it with rugellah.

As for the elite thing, my only criterion is: "do you think you are better than anyone else?" If the answer is yes, you are an elitist. And a twit.

Hollywood Republican, eh? I feel like I am in Claire's universe, searching for a moderate Muslim.

The man is too deep, his thoughts too big to fit on index cards or, heaven forfend, the palm of his hand. And who wants to hear what he really thinks of us or, worse yet, what he thinks of our friends in India. Protocol demands that he carry his crutch at all times, particularly when venturing outside of the US.

May be the cocaine addled monkeys can help with the 712K stimulus funded study at Northwestern to create "machine-generated humour."

Ragnarok

Michael Labeit: The dumbest stimulus project is the one with the highest price tag. ·

Some truth in that, though by that standard the 222K to the University of Indiana to study why young men don't like to wear condoms is small beer, yes?

Ragnarok

Ward, it is true and you are right, that UCLA study --to teach African men how to wash their genitals-wins. Hands down, if I may say.

Ragnarok

Trace Urdan

Oh ok, he'll also have my vote if he's running against Obama.

Crikey, mine too, his embrace of AGW, Knut, notwithstanding.
