Bruce McQuain at Q&O:

Oliver Willis asks on Twitter:

“How many qualified and tested Republican women did McCain pass over for Sarah Palin? “

Boortz, this morning:

Nancy Pelosi has responded to the current Republican debate, which continues in her absence. She is blaming Republicans for failing to “support serious, responsible proposals.” Yeah … wind farms.

Funny he should bring this up. A

Last night here and the night before over at Q&O, I wondered if Nancy Pelosi wasn’t setting us up for some reason. At Q&O I said:

She’s got better access to the numbers than any of us, and she knows
