Looks like the blogosphere may be onto something.

Taken by reader Jake today in Gettysburg, PA, where he is visiting with his family, and spotted this car.

Unfortunately, he did not get to meet Sarah Palin, although he did almost get run over by the MSM posse:

There will be no Battle of the Bulging Ballot Bags.

JoAnne Kloppenburg just announced that she will not file a lawsuit challenging the recount which found her losing to David Prosser by 7004 votes.

As discussed here previously, Kloppenburg had alleged that there were “anomalies” in the election, including torn or open ballot bags.

The “ballot bag security” issue was phony not because there were no tears or openings, but because there was no evidence that this was deliberate or affected the vote at all.  The Wisconsin Goverment Accountability Board rejected any suggestion that the election has other than routine, non-material adjustments, and specifically rejected the...

Write a multi-paragraph post about important issues of academic freedom and race politics in law school, and I generate nothing.
