Argh!

Earthlink cratered on me yesterday (I HATE HATE HATE their access program and all it's bell and whistles that do nothing but slow it down and eat resources) so I'm having trouble accessing the net and posting. Great timing, Earthlink! Anyway, I'll post as I can on things that jump out at me. For blow by blow blogging, check out Talking Points and Daily Kos (in the links).
