On a side note, one of the networks is running a made-for-tv movie about the Green River Killer, Reichert’s dubious claim to fame. Of course it shows him in a far too opportunistic light, you could call it CSI: Auburn, WA. The movie gives him loads of credit he doesn’t deserve, and glazes over the fact that Ridgway, the killer, was the focus for years before they got around to charging him.

As a lawman, Dave Reichert was more Barney Fife than Barney Miller.

Even so, Klobuchar said the decision was a difficult one and that she delayed making it “because of my respect for both candidates.”

She said she had been moving in Obama’s direction since the caucuses and had informed him of her decision on Saturday, freeing herself of the pressure of not having declared for either side.

“It was not an easy place to be: uncommitted,” Klobuchar said. “Between Barack and a hard place, I chose Barack.”

I’m helping to organize a netroots-themed fundraiser for her that evening!

I’m trying to envision “netroots-themed fundraiser” decorations . . .

Computer mice dangling from the ceiling?
A disco ball made from old CD-ROMs?
A laptop-shaped cake?
3.5 inch floppies for coasters?

Whatever it looks like, I’m sure there will be lots and lots of Blue.
