Interesting. I was just polled by a national firm and given a somewhat extensive poll about my reaction if Ted Cruz un-suspended his campaign. Someone thinks it’s an idea worth exploring. At least, enough to run a poll on.

Just finished watching "Being There" with Peter Sellers. My DH and I couldn't stop laughing at how the movie parallels aspects of our current occupant in the White House. From the missing information on Chauncey's mysterious past, the fawning press who hangs on this simpleton's every word, and the last scene which shows Chauncy walking on water---the story sounded all too familiar.

A group of South Dakota veterans wants the state republican party chairman to resign. The military members support Senate democratic candidate Tom Daschle. They're upset over a fundraising letter written by state GOP chairman Randy Frederick that they say accuses Daschle of treason. Political fundraising letters often use language meant to fire up supporters, in the hope that they'll then open up their checkbooks to contribute to campaigns. But a group of veterans say a letter written in support of senate candidate John Thune goes too far. "Tired of Tom?," the letter asks out of state donors. Then send a...
