The political stories in the Sunday NJ only take about 5 minutes to read. If you'd rather spend productivly, I've summaraized the interesting parts below:
1) Governors Bristle at Bush Guard ProposalCHARLESTON, S.C. -- The nation's governors are closing ranks in opposition to a proposal in Congress that would let the president take control of the National Guard in emergencies without consent of governors.Weren't the conservative Republicans supposed to be the ones who were wary about an over-reaching central government? Why does our representative in Congress think that George Bush's track record qualifies him to take over the Delaware National Guard? How I pine for the old style Republicans who thought that a strong central government was a bad idea.
2) Ron Williams is smart, everyone else is dumb.Other than the fact that Beau is younger, Biden and Ferris are about the same. The voters are stupid. The 50 people who pay attention to politics are stupid. Biden wins. 3) In spite of the fact he is evil and has a big hand in wrecking this country, the GOP still loves Cheney.4) Middletown: the loans story still has legs.That is pretty much it.
