Post Holiday news...

I'm feeling better, thanks for asking.

On November 6th, Dan Alon, an Israeli Survivor of the Munich Olympics attack, will be speaking at 7 PM in the Marty Theater at Bradley University in Peoria, IL.

Looks like the rumors keep coming with regards to a Jerry Abramson for Governor campaign. While he is a family friend and I think he would make a superb candidate for governor, it's too early to focus on the 2007 campaigns unless your name is Ben Chandler as he is running unopposed.

Mark Warner kept busy in Iowa.

John Mellencamp is shooting a new music video.

Looks like the Daily Show will be having a Ten Year anniversary party with a concert.

Former Democrat and New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg will be raising money for Joe Lieberman's Senate campaign.

The Daily Princetonian has an article on Evan, who has his own facebook profile.

I wouldn't meet with him either.

In political news, Senator George Allen is the latest politician to learn about his Jewish roots.

I side with my Israeli brothers and sisters on this development.

Theodor Hertzl, founder of the modern Zionism movement, finally got his wish to be buried next to his children. Here's some more on that one.

The hunt continues, no matter how old one is. Do the crime, pay the time.

Apparently, politics is a funny business.

The WaPo covered the race in the 2nd district of Kentucky. Be sure to check out my interview wth Rep. Weaver. If the DCCC gives a good amount of money, Col. Mike Weaver can win this thing.

You're kidding me, right? That Iranian guy just doesn't get it. If he doesn't think that the Shoah happened, then give him a tour of Auschwitz. Take him to Yad Vashem.
Under tough questioning Wednesday at the council in New York, Iran’s president told one man who saw the Dachau concentration camp shortly after its liberation that the world "should allow more impartial studies"” on the Holocaust.
Least I forget about Baron Hill's campaign in Indiana.

Sen. Bayh has said that Iraq is not the central point of the war on terror.

The WaPo takes a look at Kentucky's fourth district.

Senator Daniel Akaka has won his primary nomination for re-election.

Not cool. Seriously, it's not cool.

John Yarmuth needs your help. Every Monday through Thursday from 5:30 pm to 8:30 pm, you are needed to help make phone calls for the campaign.
