Josh Marshall wants to know who else got help from GOP Marketplace last election. Yeah, I think I’d like to know too. This is what they refer to as “honor and dignity”, right?

Now this is more like it. The ABA goes beyond the obvious soundbite and actually digs a little, exposing some of the root causes of Brobeck’s failure. Turns out the firm borrowed heavily to finance the debt – the article not-so-subtly lays this decision at Tower Snow’s feet – and couldn’t make its quarterly partner…

If you know the rest of the words to that song (“cold spaghetti, cold spaghetti, mash banana, mash banana”) then you’ll appreciate this article at Newsweek on The Wiggles.

Let’s hope that the campaign starts managing its volunteer base better – a number of us would’ve loved to host an event with Governor Dean while he was in town. I’m sure this won’t be the last time.

Erik’s analysis is always detailed and his conclusions…
