Bite me.
Yes, last night I followed my typical pattern of spending an hour or two watching primary coverage after the polls closed before I finally got disgusted with the coverage—and with the fact that CNN is still willing to put Bill Bennett in front of a microphone at every possible opportunity—and tuned in to repeats of “Family Guy” on Adult Swim.
Then this morning I awake to find that not only has Ezra Klein devised the perfect campaign blogging strategy, but my brother tops even that by actually doing something worthwhile with his time.
Simple points: Obama has not lost ground anywhere. Obama’s gained ground with middle class white males. Cable news is not real news. Obama’s ahead in delegate count and popular vote—and mathematically, by Clinton’s own estimate, he’s going to stay that way. Clinton’s losing double-digit leads in major states simply by showing up. Bill Bennett is a big doo-doo head. And so is Wolf Blitzer.
Now that we’ve established all of that, I’m going to go actually accomplish something. I’m going to watch the episode of “Good Eats” I recorded last night.

Pretty good episode, from what I saw. The whole Democratic primary thing…well, not so much anymore.
