Happy Election Day!

We're starting off today with this item of interest from the Weekly Standard, concerning the Tom Daschle race in South Dakota. Not really the race that interests me most -- not even close -- but there's some intriguing stuff about the role of the new media on the second page, which is in keeping with the spirit of this little blog.

More on THE race of the day later.

(Oh, and I've also fixed the clock here. Hopefully it will stay fixed!)

Update, 8:35: Hugh Hewitt has some thoughts on the Daschle matter as well. Best quote: "This tactic--filing foolish and far-fetched last-minute lawsuits brought before friendly judges who issue rulings that will be overturned only after the damage at the polls is done--cannot work anymore, not as long as courtrooms are open and there's a WiFi around."
