1) Good friend El Cid (or rather, as he's styling himeself these days, El Campeador) has an interesting post on Obama as a role model.

2) I’ve long known that Minnesota was a “blue” state, but for some reason I always figured that its liberals were of the goofy, nicey-nice variety – you know, the kind of folks who, out of basic good-heartedness, will, unbidden and completely unknown to you, pick up your mail while you’re out of town, then forget to bring it over until three months after you return. Apparently, I was wrong; nice people, no matter how dopey they are, wouldn’t have brought a jerk like Al Franken this close to a senate seat.
