If Jack, Bobby, and Kenny Had Breakfast Today

Thw Washington Note has been flooded with guest posts this week, and this afternoon another excellent one went up: If Jack, Bobby, and Kenny Had Breakfast Today. Here’s a taste:

Thinking about the results in the California House seat this week, if the Kennedys and [Kenny] O’Donnell were having breakfast the morning after, does anybody believe they would be saying anything like this: OK guys, Kerry got 44% in that District, and we got all the way up to 45%, and forced the Republicans to spend twice as much as us, to win the seat again?

In fact, if Jack, Bobby and Kenny had breakfast the day after that result, the FCC would not permit me on talk radio to use the exact words they would have used, but the word would go forth to Democrats everywhere: do not let this happen again.

Side note — “13 Days” is easily my favorite Kevin Costner film.

Mini Link-Fest

There’s a small pile of links that I’ve been meaninmg to blog about but for various reasons they slipped past me. Rather than let them go completely, as I usually do, this time I’m rescuing a few of them:

– I liked Georgial10’s take on the RFK ‘Election Fraud’ article.
– This excellent guest post over at Digby’s place is a must -read for history buffs
– And this non-violent approach to rebuilding the Temple has been sitting on my desktop for months.

Also, welcome to the blogroll, Watching The Planet. Hope you’re feeling a little less lost in cyberspace.
