Adding to my list of Democrats who should consider...
Bob Etheridge- He has experience running a statewide campaign (Superintendent of Public Instruction) as well as having been a member of Congress.  Downside: he lost to a tea-party crazy in 2010, and it would be nice for him to take that seat back. Anthony Foxx- Current mayor of Charlotte.  He succeeded Pat McCrory, who is almost guaranteed to be the Republican nominee, so that could divide the...

Democrats who should consider running for Governor...
Roy Cooper- He’s Attorney General.  He’s well liked, and fairly well known. Brad Miller- The Congressman from District 13.  Republicans in the General Assembly redrew district maps to put his home 50 yards in another district represented by the wildly popular (in his district) David Price.  This would be a giant Fuck You to the General Assembly if he won. Elaine Marshall- She just...

The good kind of tired.

I dont know what’s going to happen with the marriage bill in Jersey, but I do know that there’s something incredible about being part of about 6 organizers that coordinated hundreds of supporters for an event at the state capitol. I hope I don’t have to spend the rest of my life fighting for basic civil rights (as in, because they’ll just fucking happen already), but I...

Andrew Goldman: You’ve long argued for the decriminalization of marijuana. Do you smoke weed?
Barney Frank: No.
AG: Why not?
BF: Why do you ask a question, then act surprised when I give an answer? Do you think I lie to people?
AG: I thought you might explain why you support decriminalizing it but don’t smoke it.
BF: Do you think I’ve ever had an abortion?

If you’ve got 14 minutes, here’s a 60 Minutes piece about how shitty banks have been during the foreclosure crisis. I know, 14 minutes is forever in internet time.  But trust me, it’s worth watching.
