I hope you continue to find ways to incorporate these into FDL. Get the techies working on a multi-site video, say from Middletown CT and Michigan and/or MA for the FDL regulars. There’s nothing like having a face to put to a name. Can you answer this question, who wins the Oscar for the best produced blog?

NewsClues @ 175, I’ve read that Richardson has the Arnold problem.

All the leading candidates who are flashy today will not be so much months from now. Love the way Democrats beat each other up making the Republics’ job so much easier. I won’t like voting for mud-slingers.

I I especially liked the politicstv coverage. It’s good to be able to attach a face sometimes to what one’s reading (and some nice faces they are! :) ).

Sure wish some folks would address the war profiteering beyond Halliburton (though not excluding them), the blood for oil realities that are coming to fruition with the new Iraqi oil laws being passed, and the permanent bases to protect the big oil companies.

So, what’s next? There’s a real momentum starting here….possible to find more bloggers with expertise on defense spending, healthcare administration, constitutional law, who could blog future committee hearings and diagram the political ebb and flow for us lefties?

Sure wish some folks would address the war profiteering beyond Halliburton (though not excluding them), the blood for oil realities that are coming to fruition with the new Iraqi oil laws being passed, and the permanent bases to protect the big oil companies.

Eli @ 3: “Did I read right that PhD jurors were the *defense’s* idea? How does that jibe with an arm-waving, smoke-blowing, confuse-the-jury defense?”

PhD’s in the sciences used to lean, by a slight margin, towards the Republican party.

I don’t know if that’s still the case, somehow I doubt it, but it may have been the thinking behind the defense wanting them on the jury, *if* that’s what happened.

I guess that could be it, but if I were them, I’d be looking for indecisive, easily confused people who are distracted by shiny objects.

You rang?

Have there been any rumors about Pelosi seeking the Presidency someday? Obviously, she’s already as close as any woman has ever been, but I wonder if she would ever campaign for it.

Hillary is just atrocious (although if she’s the nominee I’ll vote for her), and Pelosi has been wonderful so far!…

How can you say that when she’s taken impeachment off the table? Recant! Recant!
