I got another phone survey yesterday.  It seems so strange that I get another one so soon after the last one.  I guess that tells you that the calls are made at random.  Although I don't care for all the silly questions about botox.  I was really tempted to hang up on that string of questions.

Canada's prime minister is suing the leader of the opposition.  For libel.  Unthinkable.   And to think this all came up over an 'alleged' bribe made to late MP Chuck Cadman, and revealed by his wife who is now a Tory candidate!  Perhaps I'd feel more sorry for the p.m. if he didn't seem like the kind of politician who would say or do anything to win elections.

I don't really want to comment on Eliot Spitzer.  It just seems really sad that yet another politician has irreparably damaged his reputation and career (and possibly his marriage) in such a shameful fashion.  But that seems to be all over CNN.  Campaign coverage can push a lot of important stories out of the limelight, but sex scandals are always major news.

Why oh why do politicians' supporters have to open their mouths and say something stupid?  Samantha Power, Geraldine Ferraro... even Bill Clinton earlier in the campaign.  Sometimes you have to wonder whether people are thinking before they speak.
