Please, no one with any spine

Here's a funny one to get you through your Tuesday afternoon. The backers of Sen. Ron "Gatsby" Wyden (R-N.Y.) have wired us to report that we need to send money to Wyden right away because his opponent is an ideologue, and OMG, we can't have any ideologues representing us in Congress!

They've got a valid point. Their guy can't be accused of having rigid principles. He's full of surprises. Repeal the estate tax, cut corporate tax rates, kill the health care public option -- you never need to worry that Ron Wyden has any ideology. Particularly not a Democratic one.

Hey, at least you get a free bumper sticker. I'm sure Ron's looks pretty impressive on the limo when he's stuck in traffic in NYC.

You get a promise of a bumper sticker later this year. I wouldn't bank on it.

Kari sure likes exclamation points -- perhaps his fees are based on the number used.

Although I despair at the hideous choices on offer for this race, I suspect Gatsby wins going away ... although methinks that the more that logo gets out there, the more the chances of an upset climb.
