Heading to Denver

Posting will be ever less frequent here at moribund Hog. I'm off to Denver, but Blue Oregon will get all my love. Kari's set up a Twitter account so that we can inform you not only of actual happenings (about which CNN, FOX, NBC, The Weather Channel, etc. will also, simultaneously be informing you), but those of a transitory, personal nature. I had vowed not to blog comments like, "Hey look, it's David Wu." But apparently that's what Twitter's for.

In any case, follow the fun at Blue Oregon.

Random meta comment: this is my 1,0001st post on Hog. Alert Guinness.

By Which I Eliminate McCaskill

The DNC just sent out additional speakers for the Convention. Among them, Claire McCaskill and Michelle's brother (and OSU hoops coach) Craig Robinson. Since there's a separate spot for the Veep candidate, I am going to go ahead and boldly predict that McCaskill will not be Obama's choice. I applied this same logic to Hillary. We could also eliminate Robinson, though the veepstake handicappers had him down as something of a longshot to begin with.

Many people regard me as dull-witted; let this exercise of raw intellect dispel the impression.
