It appears Paula Abdul may be leaving "American Idol."
Too bad--despite her goofiness, if she leaves the show will lose some chemistry.
As I predicted, the pressure on Rod Blagojevich to quit continues to build--now the Illinois AG seeks to have him declared "unfit."
Yet, as I also predicted, so far there's little sign that Blago will willingly go.
Jim Geraghty at NRO makes a good point--why isn't there more coverage of the fact that the American public seems HIGHLY dubious of this auto bailout legislation?
Many in the news media say Republicans are taking a "risk" by opposing it. But I doubt it.
Many opposed the financial bailout back in October, too.
Colin Powell not only stupidly attacked Sarah Palin recently--he also attacked Rush Limbaugh:
"Powell says: "Can we continue to listen to Rush Limbaugh? Is this really the kind of party that we want to be when these kinds of spokespersons seem to appeal to our lesser instincts rather than our better instincts?" Powell helpfully added that “There is nothing wrong with being conservative” (how gracious of him) and cautioned against just trying to appealing to African-Americans, Hispanic, and Asian voters based on “the principles and dogma.”
(Wow. Say, let's do a comparison: how many people has Rush Limbaugh attracted to conservatism and the Republican Party? Millions. Meaning--he's attracted a helluva lot more than has Colin Powell. And to just dismiss "principles" and lump them in with "dogma"--pathetic.)
