		        <![CDATA[<p>Thinking about this last night, if the news that Hillary Clinton may become Obama's SoS is accurate, this puts a whole new spin on Max Baucus' entry into the healthcare policy area the other day.  Obama is going to need a powerful and influential pointman to shepherd healthcare legislation through the Senate.  One that can work across the aisle, and will have Kennedy's back if he gets too sick to lead the way.  </p>

<p>Everyone, including me, has figured that this point person would be Hillary.  After all, this is the one issue that she's personally been closest to for almost 2 decades now.  But if she leaves the Senate to join an Obama administration, Max Baucus is <i>perfect</i> for this role.  He's got friends on both sides of the aisle, has a history of bipartisanship (much to some of our annoyance at times), and as head of the Senate Finance Committee, he's in the best possible position to ensure that legislation doesn't get derailed in the Senate.</p>

<p>I'm still not convinced that Hillary would join an Obama administration, but it sure is a hell of a puzzle piece that fits in with other pieces as this things starts to take shape.</p>

<p>Color me intrigued.  And impressed if this thing comes to pass.  If Obama's not careful, I'm going to start expecting big things from him.  :)</p>]]>

		        <![CDATA[<blockquote>When will TPM call Missouri, Mexico and Canada?</blockquote>
You know, I always think the exact same thing when I look at TPM's map.  I just figured they were factoring in the inevitable outcome of the Bush Doctrine.  Good eye spotting the Bahamian islands down there.  Missed them, I did.

<p>You do seem to be curiously ignoring Russia, which as the map accurately reflects, can be seen from Sarah Palin's doorstop.  That's a hell of a lot of electoral votes right there.</p>]]>

		        <![CDATA[<p>All I can say right now is, THANK GOD Barack Obama didn't pick Evan Bayh to be his Vice President.  Right now, he's trying to make an argument to Rachel Maddow that Lieberman should be allowed to keep his Chairmanship.  And his argument basically amounts to "Leverage?  What's this leverage of which you speak?  We need Joe because we're not tough or smart enough to get any of those Republicans to vote for our bills."</p>

<p>Democrats like Bayh make my skin crawl, and is a huge reason why before Bush pissed me the hell of to such a ridiculous degree, I considered myself an independent that just happened to vote Democratic.</p>

<p>Lieberman needs to be held accountable for his actions, and if Reid can't figure out how to squeeze 2 or 3 votes out of some moderate Republicans to pass something like Health Care, then we need new leadership.</p>]]>
