Put together a steady record of fiscal conservatism, social conservatism, success in a purple state, and executive experience, and you should get a formidable candidate.

In one of the most beautifully worded pieces of editorial bile I’ve ever read, columnist E.J. Dionne Jr. tells conservatives the lessons they should learn about piety from the Mark Souder resignation last week.
I’m unsure whether this is a good idea or not, but the video game Mass Effect has been licensed to be made into a movie. Maybe it will translate – the main character is kind of hot!
