6. Yes, she is beautiful ....

her husband just died after months of living in Hell with a brain tumor. She had to watch without being able to stop it. She looks sad and haggard as one would expect. How should she look right now?

5. I will take it as a good sign, like the news report on how much more bush tax cuts cost over HCR

And wondering about the speech to kids yesterday. Wingers went nuts and the speech was 'work hard, take responsibility for your education, & wash your hands to keep healthy. Thinking the plan is to take some of the arrows out of RW pundit quivers by making them all look like over-reacting nut cases.

9. Victoria should change her mind

and run for Ted's seat. She knows the staff, already has a home in Washington , and would make an immediate impact
