Capitol Hill this morning was quite a scene with all three presidential candidates in residence. Campaign reporters hovered over the desks of their congressional counterparts. There was John McCain and Lindsey Graham chatting up Dennis Kucinich by the Ohio Clock. Were they seeking an endorsement? “No,” laughed Kucinich, who is still …

Earlier today, Eric Woolson, the former Iowa campaign manager for Mike Huckabee, sent out an informal email to some people, including a bunch of reporters. He had meant it as a funny thing that we would all keep private. But he made a horrific error. He got funny. To wit:

It comes as no surprise to most of you who know me: My office is

The Florida Democratic Party has put its proposal for a mail-in mulligan on the table. You can read it here.

UPDATE: Commenter Four Legs Good asks:

I thought I saw on the news last night that a mail in is illegal under Florida law?

It turns out that the primary would not be governed by Florida law, at least not according to the …

Public officials do bad things. They take bribes, sleep with prostitutes, make racially insensitive jokes and take positions over which you, the voter, can justifiably be upset. These are first-degree political sins committed by first-degree political sinners that lead to first-degree political scandals. And they are clearly …

He might have looked for a speaking engagement in Providence, rather than Washington. This from the ProJo:

PROVIDENCE — With the nation’s eyes trained on former New York Gov. Eliot Spitzer’s alleged involvement with a prostitute, Rhode Island lawmakers are considering a bill that would close the loophole in this state’s laws

JP wonders what Keith was thinking:

I’ll let you and/or Swampland argue the merits of Olbermann’s argument, but it’s an interesting step for him and MSNBC in a couple ways. First–well, if MSNBC felt any pressure after the David “Big Pimpin'” Shuster incident and the ongoing criticism of Chris Matthews to prove that it’s not the

This is my day to let the bloggers at our NY headquarters (AKA The Death Star) do all my work for me. Over at Tuned In, Jim Poniewozik takes a look at the possible motivations and implications of Keith Olbermann’s blistering commentary last night about Hillary Clinton.:

I’ll let you and/or Swampland argue the merits of Olbermann’s

Over at the Curious Capitalist, our blogging cousin Justin Fox takes a look at the President’s boast yesterday that we have his tax cuts to thank for the current economy:

Now I don’t think the Bush tax cuts are the cause of our current economic problems (the misdevelopment of our financial system, which began long before 2001 although

Will be at 11:30AM EST. This one is with Gov. Ed Rendell — ideas for questions addressed to him specifically would be much appreciated. Some interesting data points:

• Rendell has said that Clinton would give the VP slot “serious consideration.”

• He’s defended the prospect of superdelegates picking a nominee that did not win the

Hillary Clinton has put her experience–35 years of it, as she tells us over and over–front and center in her presidential campaign. But it’s not always easy to tell precisely what that means, especially given that many of the chief accomplishments that she claims came in her role as First Lady, a job that can carries no portfolio.

Thanks to the Internet, SNL no longer has a monopoly on political sketch comedy. This is from an LA-based troupe called the Public Service Administration.

If anyone knows a similarly good sketch attacking the Obama campaign, let me know in the comments, and in the interest of equal time, I will post.

Also: Geraldine Ferraro resigned …

We opened with brief (-ish) statements from the men on the call attesting to Hillary’s readiness. A highlight, from Maj. General Paul Eaton: “This lady… she’s steady in the saddle and extra bright… and that’s a combination that soldiers love.” And this, from Wolfson on “tactical voting”: HRC’s increased proportion of Republican votes
