OBAMA OFFERS HILLARY
THE VEEP SLOT?
But what will he do if she says yes? And, worse yet, if they win? What would it be like being an inexperienced President with the entire Clinton operation just a heartbeat away?
UPDATE:
Clinton raised $22 million last month.

NOW IF SCIENTOLOGY OR THE MPAA WERE INVOLVED, IT WOULD BE DIFFERENT:
YouTube refuses to remove terrorist videos.
Or maybe if we could convince the Google folks that these were Chinese dissidents . . . .

WHY HILLARY WON
in West Virginia and Kentucky.
"If the moonshine wears off and I can find my shoes, I might respond. Better yet, I extend an invitation to Mr. Warner to visit Knoxville and Appalachia." Lail owns shoes?

RALPH PETERS:
Success in Iraq: A Media Blackout.
"Want a
real
'inconvenient truth?' Progress in Iraq is powerful and accelerating." It does get reported here and there, but not with the kind of intensity and emphasis that
bad
news gets, more like a CYA memo to the file . . .

AN EASY WIN FOR HILLARY
IN KENTUCKY.
But note how polarized the voting has become.
UPDATE:
Liveblogging Hillary's victory speech
at TalkLeft.
ANOTHER UPDATE: Video
here.
MORE: With 95% of the vote in it's Hillary 66, Obama 30. Ouch.
STILL MORE: Marc Ambinder:
8 In 10 Clinton Voters in KY Dissatisfied With Obama As The Nominee.
Oregon voters are mellower.
MORE STILL: The
Los Angeles Times
looks at the exit polls.
Plus, this from
Eric Scheie:
"While it wasn't much of a surprise to see Hillary Clinton win Kentucky, the fact that she won by more than a 2-1 margin (65%-30%, with 91% of the vote in) ought to send a shiver down whatever spine the Democrats have. . . . For the time being, Republicans ought to be happy that this fighting is keeping McCain in a competitive position."
Plus,
will Obama lose women in the Fall?
Most of 'em will get over it by then.
And Bill Schneider:
Democratic division continues to run deep.

JAMES GRIMMELMAN on
social networking and privacy:
"Facebook is a privacy virus: an organism that reproduces itself within a social network by convincing infected hosts to use their own replication mechanisms to spread it to others. And the way it gets past our privacy defense mechanisms is to turn them against us: social network service interactions have almost all the indicia we look for in reassuring ourselves that we’re in a private setting, rather than out in public."

LAWS ARE FOR
THE LITTLE PEOPLE:
Ald. Richard Mell (33rd) is a former hunter with an arsenal of weapons that reportedly features shotguns, rifles and pistols, including a Walther PPK of James Bond fame.
But there's a problem. Mell forgot to re-register the weapons as required every year by the ordinance that he helped to pass as one of the City Council's most senior members.
So, what does an alderman do when he finds himself in violation of the law? He writes a new law. Mell has quietly introduced an ordinance that would reopen gun registration in Chicago and create a one-month amnesty for himself and other gun owners in the same predicament.
How about just repeal the entire ridiculous law?
