Who could vote if Michigan re-does primary?

I voted for Romney. He's gone. Now I want to vote again!
Heh....

Will GOPer voters be the difference in the Michigan primary?
"Obviously they would have to make those decisions how they're going to run this, how they're going to pay for it in the next two weeks. The legislature is only in for the next two weeks, and then they go on break, and then it's too late. So, really, within the next two weeks they have to make a decision on this.'"

CARPE DIEM: Another Economist Says NO Recession: "We still don’t have conclusive evidence that we’re in a recession, and we might avoid one altogether. A credible case could be made that we’re facing just one quarter of negative growth, and that GDP growth will be back in positive territory during the remaining three quarters of 2008."

Heights struggles to fix pervasive road problem

OK. I get it.

We let the Heights run their city into the ground, literally.

We quietly watch as they scare away all business. Wouldn't want to be called "racist" by the Chronicle, now would we.

We applaud as the Heights uses up their entire 30 year tax millage on a new school that doesn't do no educatin'.

And now the Chronicle front-pages the sad story of a bankrupt city filled with pot holes.

Grab your wallets, folks!

Brain surgeon operates with DIY drill - Times Online

"Free healthcare" coming to your town soon!

Brain surgeon operates with DIY drill - Times Online: "An eminent British neuro-surgeon has been performing complex brain operations using a £30 do-it-yourself cordless power drill at a clinic in Ukraine.
Henry Marsh, a senior consultant at St George’s hospital in Tooting, south London, has used the Bosch 9.6 volt battery-operated hand tool to open up the skulls of his patients to remove life-threatening tumours. Occasionally the battery has gone flat halfway through.

The operation is performed with the patients fully awake – a technique that fell out of use in Britain 50 years ago. Marsh said that Ukrainians could withstand such a practice because they were “very tough”.
The 58-year-old consultant travels to Ukraine twice a year to perform free operations at a clinic run by a fellow surgeon, Igor Petrovich. The handyman drill was used because the local doctors could not afford state-of-the-art equipment."

Something's rotten in Big Ten basketball

Something's rotten in Big Ten basketball:

"This game was an ordeal to watch.

From an entertainment standpoint -- and that's what these games are after all -- it would have been more merciful to decide the game with a coin flip at the very beginning.
There's an old saying that the best officiated game is one in which you don't notice the officials.

Unfortunately for MSU, and even Wisconsin, which really can't claim a clean victory on the merit of its own talent and hard work, the officiating was just about the only thing that was noticed"

Barack Obama & Jeremiah Wright

Barack Obama & Jeremiah Wright: "But Jeremiah Wright is not exactly peripheral to Barack Obama’s life. He married the Obamas and baptized their children.

Those of us who made the mistake of buying the senator’s last book, The Audacity of Hope, and assumed the title .................. in fact the phrase comes from one of the Reverend Wright’s sermons.

Jeremiah Wright has been Barack Obama’s pastor for 20 years — in other words, pretty much the senator’s entire adult life.

Did Obama consider God Damn America as a title for his book but it didn’t focus-group so well?"

Tomorrow Never Knows

#2 Decca Records A&R exec tells Fab Four, “No, thanks”Dick Rowe was not the only record-label executive who passed on the Beatles in the early ’60s, but he was the only one who brushed off their manager, Brian Epstein, with the astute prediction that: “Groups with guitars are on their way out.”

Epstein begged Rowe to reconsider, so Rowe hopped a train to Liverpool to check out the band live. When he arrived at the Cavern, he found a mob of kids trying to force their way into the club in the pouring rain. Annoyed, he smoked a cigarette, went home and signed Brian Poole and the Tremeloes instead.
