  1. @RobGodfrey: No one in DC this week ISN'T covering confirmation hearings. How do you think SC's two Sens will vote? Graham a GOP wildcard?
  2. Pres. Obama facing huge week on health care, Sotomayor. How big a boost will it be when Soto is confirmed? Depends on GOP fight against her.
  3. IL Rep. Kirk is in ... No, out of Senate race. Bad news for NRSC. First-day rollout stories for any candidate will now refer to Kirk.
  4. Santorum involved in Ensign affair: http://bit.ly/fiahq
  5. CDC advertisement in Metro lists diseases they work on. One is "Aging Public." Confirms what hypochondriacs knew: We're all getting worse!

  13. NH AG Kelly Ayotte (R) to resign from office, likely setting up Senate bid. NH GOP finally gets a candidate against Rep. Paul Hodes (D).

  15. RT @TheFix: Probably not worth writing anything of import today -- will be washed away by MJ coverage.
  16. Story for tomorrow: Top ten FEC reports to watch when thr second quarter reports are due. Any nominations?
  17. KY Sec/State Grayson (R) raises $600K in 55 days. Your move, Sen. Bunning (R). LG Mongiardo (D) and AG Conway (D) battle plays 2nd fiddle.
  18. @RobGodfrey: The pleasure is all mine. A serious question: Have we heard from Speaker Harrell on Gov. Sanford? If not, why not?
  19. @MPOinDC brings up a good point: Can Gov. Palin see Pres. Obama in Russia from her house? What's view like from Lt. Gov. Parnell's house?
  20. Def. Sec. Robert McNamara dies at age 93. While Vietnam will be his legacy, he did increase World Bank lending twelve-fold.
