Item One:
Juan McCain won the Florida primary last night. Mitt came in second, followed by a distant Rudy. The reports coming in today are that Rudy will drop out (John Edwards has just done so) and endorse McCain (Edwards did not). Super Tuesday is now less than a week away, and there is an important debate tonight in California. Thankfully, Mitt has vowed to fight on, and I still believe he will be the nominee. McCain is only a Republican, and is he becomes president, we'll have at least four years of legislation like McCain-Feingold ("campaign finance"), McCain-Kennedy (amnesty for illegal immigrants) and McCain-Lieberman (capping greenhouse gas emissions). These are not hallmarks of a conservative.
Item Two:
The economic "stimulus" that has just passed the House of Representatives may have a fatal flaw. According to some analysts, the bill would grant rebates to illegal immigrants who (illegally) paid taxes, even if they have been deported. Sen. John Ensign (R-NV) has vowed to try and "fix" the bill before it passes the Senate and goes to the President's desk.
