Quick one

I'm making the one before the game very quick. In other words, the usual long entry is short.

Evan Bayh voted against a pay raise in the senate citing the growing deficit. Good call, I'd do the same.
"With today's growing deficit, I don't believe the Senate should give itself a pay raise," said Sen. Evan Bayh, D-Ind., who voted for the freeze.

Lugar, a Republican, voted against the freeze because he supports the system Congress created in 1989 to grant cost-of-living increases to lawmakers similar to the way other senior government officials' salaries are determined, according to spokesman Andy Fisher.
Danelle R. Groves was hired a few days before Daniel Groves was fired by the Governor.
The appointed job is a nonmerit position, not covered by the merit system law, which prohibits consideration of political affiliation in hiring for certain state jobs.

Before joining state government, Danelle Groves, 31, worked as a finance assistant for the Republican Party of Kentucky, according to a resume she attached to her state job application.
Mark Warner pulling the plug on Tim Kaine? I sure hope not. It would be a bad move for a potential presidential candidate to not support one of his own. I hope that it's a hoax.

Red Sox 3B Coach Dale Sveum will now be an assistant coach for the Milwaukee Brewers.
