Clueless Carper Courts Cajun Country Corpse

What stupid shit did Senator for Life, Tom Carper, say today? Well, while campaigning for "dead woman walking" Mary Landrieu, a fake Republican about to lose to a real Republican, Carper said that he still expects his show of bipartisanship to be "reciprocated" by grateful Republicans. Also, the Keystone Pipeline is still the root cause of all DC dysfunction (in-case you were wondering).
Coming Tuesday: The Entire 62 Project Unveiled.

Coming Tuesday: The Entire 62 Project Unveiled.

The Bataan Death March of projects reaches its ultimate destination tomorrow. Both here on DL and on the Al Mascitti Show beginning at 10 am. You can listen right here. The entire 147th General Assembly legislative roster ranked from 1-62, based on legislators' careers, not just the past couple of months. I think the project got bogged down b/c, although it's really easy to write about the best legislators, the worst legislators, and the most eccentric legislators, there was a group of legislators ranked somewhere between 40 and 50 who were not particularly interesting to me. Legislators who were just there. I lost my mojo. Finally got my mojo workin' last weekend. Anyway, once the list is posted, I'll tweak the list before the start of the 148th to account for injustices, new info, and, of course, to address both the departed and the newcomers. Since the list is completed and will not change before tomorrow, feel free to predict your #1 and #62.

We’re Back

Apologies to our loyal readers for the break we took over the past Thanksgiving week. Personally I had five days of real work packed into two and a half days, then we had thirty family members to visit and two Thanksgivings meals to attend and leaves to rake and Christmas decorations to put up and roofs to climb and lights to hang. Come to think of it, I need another week off. So since you did not have an Open Thread for some time, have this one....
