Daschle Explores Possibility Of Getting Ass Kicked Again In 2008

This time, he's forming an exploratory committee to guage interest in becoming a national embarrassment in a presidential race.

Republicans across America cheered the news that we might again have Tom Daschle to kick around anymore.

Check out this unrelated story, attached to the above one.

Democratic Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton, a White House hopeful who has sought the political middle on abortion, on Wednesday criticized Republicans for trying to erode access to birth control for women.

AP apparently thinks that being 100% pro-abortion is the "political middle."

The New York senator complained that the Bush administration and congressional Republicans are whittling away at contraception options, particularly for poor women who rely on government-funded programs.

In related news, the AP just referred to Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad as "seeking the political middle on the question of exterminating all Jews."
