Inspired by the logic behind an article in today's New York Sun, "U.S. Success in Iraq War Could Hurt Democrats: The Petraeus Report Worries Party Analysts," some other things that could hurt Democrats: 1.

World's oil resources found to spontaneously self-regenerate every 125 years, thanks to foresight and ingenuity of Halliburton and KBR. 3. Fred Thompson saves Abigail Breslin from drowning. 4.

Election-week Volvo recall. 6. The Rapture. U.S. Success in Iraq War Could Hurt Democrats [NYS]

Yeah, we imagine the thing would be better if we were stoned, too. Conrad Black — The Strands of Honor [NYS]
