* Convenient timing for the California GOP to have a come-to-Jesus about the electoral college. [ WP ]

* Bush will continue to lie and say crazy things and then send more troops into Iraq while we're all standing around with our jaws on the floor. [ NYT ]

* Republicans love Hillary Clinton because frothing, wild-eyed hatred is the only way they can see keeping the White House. [ Politico ]

* As Americans, it's our duty to increase the number of nations employing children as soldiers, and that's why we invaded Iraq. [ LAT ]

* The next generation of Democrats crash and burn early. [ USAT ]

* Ann Romney's got some shit to say too, but she's busy cooking and making babies. [ BG ]

* "Four more years" of Clintonism surely spells disaster for a nation that just recently began heading in the right direction. [ CT ]
