- The greatest show in politics moves to Florida today. Even though Florida only assigns delegates for the Republican race, the Democratic race is getting almost as much attention. While some ads for Obama have run there as part of a national ad buy, Clinton has a huge advantage since she wants to seat Florida's delegates while Obama doesn't. Florida democrats, naturally (but wrongly) upset about being excluded from the Democratic process would be made of stone if that didn't move them. This is actually one case where the mainstream media has done better than the political press--CNN for example doesn't mention on its front page that Democrats will vote today. This take is accurate (and hilarious).
- Kansas governor Kathleen Sebelius, much beloved by liberal bloggers (at least until her atrocious SOTU response yesterday) endorses Obama. Clinton picked up Rep. Maxine Waters.
- Bill Richardson waxes nostalgic about how Obama had his back in a debate.
- On the Republican side there's really not much to report. Mitt Romney or John McCain will win Florida. Whoever wins will be hailed as the new conquering Republican hero even though it'll probably be a pretty narrow win. I think at this point everyone is so sick of the GOP campaign they just want it to be over.
- Finally Ron Paul picks up the endorsement of ... Arlo Guthrie!?! Really? Say it ain't so Arlo.
