Wonkette suggests a much more likely possibility than the "Hillary for Veep" being touted by Drudge. The problem with Drudge's argument, of course, is that it will be *Bill* Clinton who will be the veep--Hillary will be the nominee after the brokered convention. I mean, clearly...

Since I am to busy to engage in actual, honest-to-goodness blogging, allow me to play Professor Instalinker and direct you to this fine post. Heh. Ouch!
I'm surprised that Eugene Volokh is surprised that O'Connor and Breyer vote together 70% of the time, the 8th most common pairing on the court. Breyer--as was proved yet again in.
