    Congress may investigate BCS legality
    kelvin273
    by kelvin273  4-18-2008   
     I agree that the BCS is a stupid system, but Congress has much more important things to look into.

    It's over, and the Democrats win

     I couldn't clip the entire 13 Keys system in detail and stay under the sharing limit, but check it out in the full article. The only problem with the columnist's analysis is that he forgets to mention that the 13 keys only predict the winner of the popular vote. It doesn't predict the Electoral College winner (and thus doesn't always predict the actual president).

    Dennis Hastert's seat goes to Democrat

     Oddly enough, this development may be a good argument for not putting Obama on the ticket if Clinton comes back to win. If the downstate areas of Illinois are going Democratic, the party really doesn't have to worry about Illinois' electoral votes in the fall.

    Benazir Bhutto's Posthumous Report to Congress
    kelvin273
    by kelvin273  1-1-2008   
     Granted, the document comes from Musharraf's political opponents, but given Pakistan's lackluster performance on the terror front, it makes you wonder.

    NASA releases pilot complaints

     I'm still trying to figure out why this is NASA's program, as opposed to the FAA.

    Are they underestimating Harry Reid?
    kelvin273
    by kelvin273  12-20-2007   
     I wonder if Harry Reid is smarter than we've been giving him credit for. Conventional wisdom in Democratic circles holds that he's a wimp who folds every time Republicans even threaten a filibuster. But I wonder if it's possible that playing the helpless minority, especially on Iraq, might pay more political dividends than direct confrontation by sending the message that voters *must* give the Dems 60 votes in the Senate and the presidency if they want the war to end. I still think they should be more confrontational on domestic issues like the AMT, but this is food for thought.

    Presidential power at historical high
    kelvin273

     The full article lists other factors driving the expansion of presidential power, including a decline in public political participation which weakens Congress.

    Congress to (try to) give D.C. a voting representative
    kelvin273
    by kelvin273  3-8-2007   
     Personally, I don't see this going anywhere. I believe it would take a Constitutional Amendment to actually give D.C. voting representation. They should get a representative, but this bill isn't going to do it.

    Vern Buchanan claims 18,000 people "chose" to vote in local races but not House race
    kelvin273
    by kelvin273  12-10-2006   
     Does this strike anyone else as the most insincere Orwellian doublespeak ever?

    House of Reps to expand to 437
    kelvin273
    by kelvin273  12-1-2006   
     This one slipped in under the radar. This is the first I've heard about this major change to the makeup of Congress.

    Alcee Hastings seeks Intelligence chair
    kelvin273
    by kelvin273  11-22-2006   
     I'm not sure about the facts of Hastings bribery case, but this would create a bad image for the Democrats. It could happen, too. Her support of Murtha for majority leader indicates that Pelosi values loyalty more than the perception of integrity.
