Representative Ballsy?

A friend turned me on to this self-promoting article by Freshman congressman Alan Grayson.  Congressman Grayson obviously knows one of the most one of campaigning's most treasured secrets: Americans just love it when politicians speak about themselves in the third person (see "Bob Dole") and do it with unabashed egotism.

Apparently the self-appointed spokesperson for the progressive left, he'll leave his party w/ lots of splainin' to do when he loses.  Call that prediction #2.

Our First Prophesy?

CNN reports today that the House will take up health care legislation piecemeal.  I'm going to make a giant leap and file this under the first Center Wing prophesy.  Now if only Hillary and Rudy were the prez candidates in 2008, I'd be two for two.  (Note to political scientists: never predict presidential races months in advance, no matter how much your friends press you on it.  You'll just look like an idiot later.)
