1. Also an interesting tidbit

http://www.nytimes.com/2008/01/11/us/politics/11clinton.html?scp=3&sq=kerry Mostly about "The all-new, listening and accessible" Clinton, but toward the end

"Further, Senator John Kerry of Massachusetts, who endorsed Mr. Obama on Thursday, called influential local reporters to try to diminish Mrs. Clinton�s impact on the day of her arrival. "

4. How silly

Kerry was there on Thursday, called the media on Thursday and Clinton arrived in SC on Thursday. Which two of these are very likely independent events?

7. Boston Globe article, I thought, was better, IMHO,

at least in terms of explaining Kerry relationships with Edwards, Clintons, and Obama, and possible impact of endorsement

9. yeah, but as someone commented there, consider the source

the NY Daily News.

I just hew to the model of JK's moral compass (his descriptor of Obama, but it applies even more to JK). God, I admire his strength.
