It’s the lifeblood of my blogging. I read every other blog, newspaper, etc other than RedState and The Minority Report that way. I do what I used to do before Google Reader in half the time.

And I really have no idea. My only guess is that the mailer a day picturing Vicki in a different exotic locale has to have done some damage to her and caused more of the swing voters to flip.

….how Vicki Schneider lost that election. I’ve never seen so many political signs out for a candidate than she had out there.

(Good summary, Brian. I don’t know how you keep up on all this local stuff. I guess my problem is that I cancelled the Post-Dispatch because it’s such a far leftist rag)

The St. Louis board of alderman is going to consider a proposal that would name part of Delmar Boulevard "Barack Obama Boulevard"

Either way, St. Louis joins a growing number of cities not content to wait for inauguration to begin honoring the president-elect. In South Florida, the city of Opa-locka wants to name an avenue for Obama, while in Long Island, N.Y. a grade school has been renamed Barack Obama Elementary. In Perry County, Ala., the county commission has declared the second Monday in November as “Barack Obama Day.”
