Georgia's in play. This calls for a celebratory piece of cheese.

here.  One of my favorites:

11:50: The Barr people just did something stupid. They're doing a Ron Paul-esque march around the hall, in front of C-Span cameras, and it's inspired a wave of heckles and boos. They look, frankly, like assholes. "They're Republicans!" I overhear. "What do you expect?"


Barr-Root is the ticket (Chris Guy - 5/25/2008 8:49:51 PM)
Wayne Allyn Root is a famous sports handicapper. Maybe he'll make Nevada an easier win for Obama?


Obama's plan in the Rocky Mountain states (Randy Klear - 5/26/2008 12:24:12 AM)
was to draw off disaffected libertarian Republicans from McCain. More of them will probably leave now, but if they go to Barr rather than directly to Obama, it's not obvious that it will help on a net basis. It probably won't hurt, though.
