Odds and ends...

Lot of political news over the last couple days. There was Rep. Michele Bachmann's meteoric rise in the public consciousness (and by meteoric I mean the massive crater one leaves in the ground). There was the ret. Gen. Colin Powell endorsement, if you have not seen it I recommend it in it's entirety. I have rarely seen a more cogent defense for a candidate.

Also I would recommend reading Fivethirtyeight.com. Silver and crew are doing a great job of digesting the polling information of the day.

A good article on the subject of Colin Powell's endorsement by Maureen Dowd:
