or should have been?
It probably would have been the Nanny looking to fill Hillary's Senate seat. Should have been either the auto industry 'rescue' or the climate talks in Poland. Fat chance of that last one hitting the MSM.

3. Hell, I didn't even know the House had hearings yesterday. |
|
Just checked CNN's front page, it didn't even get a mention.

5. We might have learned a little more about Gore's meeting with Obama.. |
|
I know I would have liked to hear more. There WAS press there, because I've seen numerous clips of Gore & Obama seated by each other while PE Obama is makeing some small remark about Brago...

6. The suggestion that the Blagojevich arrest |
|
was a purely political move designed to keep Siegelman or hearings off the front page, seems tin foil to me.

but the fact is that both the Siegelman news and the F& F hearing were thrown off the front page.

12. Seems odd timing as well that Blago says he's pulling all state contracts |
|

with Bank of America one day, and the next he's arrested. They knew he was trying to sell the senate seat since a day before the election. I wonder what happens with that. Why did they pick yesterday? I would think they had enough to get him two weeks ago.
