...House freshman that have already endorsed the bulk of them, 15, have gone for Obama. Clinton has the support of the four New York freshmen plus Joe Sestak of Pennsylvania, and the remaining 20 are undecided. If you add in the four Democrats who have been elected in special contests since 2006, Clinton gains one more vote, California's Laura Richardson; Obama wins another, Illinois' Bill Foster; and two more are still undecided...
...first test - the landing - has gone well. The second will go even better: the ride home from the airport, once known as the Highway of Death because of the high incidence of insurgent attacks on commuters and military convoys, is remarkably stress-free. The Iraqi colleagues who have come to collect me laugh and joke as we drive; there's none of the nervous anxiety of previous trips.

...that makes up Gnarls Barkley—Danger Mouse (Brian Burton) and Cee-Lo Green (Thomas Callaway)—appear in the video in person, and not as ink blots (“Crazy”) or as fleas perving on a leggy housewife (“Gone Daddy Gone”). Justin Timberlake shows up as well. “Run” flaunts a retro theme that other bands might handle in tacky or outdated ways. It comes complete with primitive star wipes and considerably good ideas for the upcoming 80s and 90s house dances, and then...
