That Prague trip I mentioned? I just realized I'm going to have coordinate the timing - I don't want to be out of the country for the final run-up for the New Hampshire primary, since I live 10 minutes from the border. I'd miss all the fun... =)

More on the Recall. From the Liquid List. Tarek rightly points out that the momentum was going "our way." Still, from a purely partisan practical perspective (wow, what alliteration), if this thing gets postponed 'till March it's hard to imagine that being a net Bad Thing.

And, no, I can't imagine the Supremos getting anywhere near this one. They don't want the feces of Bush v. Gore being shoved into their faces. [Eschaton]

Hee. I just dig the wording there.

More fun with Dick Cheney's absurdist appearance on Meet the Press yesterday, this time from TAPPED:

After all, Tapped doesn't know for sure that Dick Cheney isn't a robot sent from the future to destroy the human race.

They also pick up on the Iraqi Information Minister's similiarities to Dick Cheney. Good stuff.

John Edwards To Announce Candidacy on 'Daily Show'. Presidential contender John Edwards (D-NC) will be officially announcing his candidacy for the Democratic nomination for President tonight on Jon... [TalkLeft: The Politics of Crime]

As much as I love the Daily Show, this is just plain dumb. I mean, announcing your candidacy on COMEDY CENTRAL?!?

Avraham Burg: The end of Zionism. Comment: Israel must shed its illusions and choose between racist oppression and democracy, writes Avraham Burg. [Guardian Unlimited]

As always, The Guardian kicks ass. Burg is the ex-speaker of the Knesset, so he's coming from a unique position. Give it a look.

Lack of money stalls Boston-Montreal train study. Boston Herald Sep 15 2003 1:03AM ET [Moreover - Boston news]

Damn! I'd kill to be able to take a train to Montreal, especially if it only took a few hours to get there. I'd take it a couple times a year, I swear.

I'm watching K Street right now - funny stuff. Howard Dean does the best James Carville imitation *ever*. Especially pronouncing "Vermont".
