...South Carolina doesn't do something about its flag problem, the Department of Justice might. No legal action is being considered to remove the Confederate flag from the state's capitol dome (there are probably no grounds), but the department may condone objections by some of its lawyers to attending advanced training courses at DOJ's sparkling new National Advocacy Center in Columbia...

By all accounts, he's going to need as much energy as he can muster to deal with the attention - from the media and from his congressional colleagues - piqued by his return to the Capitol Monday. The Arizona senator "suspended" his quest for the Republican presidential nomination 10 days ago, after his insurgent bid was crushed by George W. Bush's powerful Super Tuesday showing. Never a man to stay out of the action long, McCain dusted off his senatorial stationery and headed back...
