Hee--this was amusing (from DailyKos):

Sen. Chuck Schumer came by the Big Tent on Thursday to field various questions from bloggers. He discussed U.S. Senate races (in his capacity as DSCC chair), party unity (he was very impressed with President Clinton's speech last night), the dynamic presidential ticket (he believes Obama can win "by 300 electoral votes", though he may have meant to say Obama can clear 300 electoral votes), and various similar questions.

Senator Schumer was accompanied by a pair of staffers, evidently tasked with keeping the Senator presentable, ensuring he eats right, things like that.

After the conclusion of his session, the Senator headed towards the exit on his way to another Democratic event, presumably with relatively classy and expensive free food.

On the way out, he espied the Big Tent's food table. His eyes lit up.

"There's pizza? Is it OK if I have a slice?"

"Uhhhh...sure, Senator", replied the Big Tent staffer at hand.

Meanwhile, Schumer's handlers went ballistic. "No! No, Chuck, it's OK! We're eating in 45 minutes! At the reception! There'll be food there! No pizza!"

Schumer turned around with a slice of pepperoni in his hand and a sheepish grin on his face, as if to say, "But I don't want reception food, I want pizza!"

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I would M Gore any day of the week and twice on Sunday, so I guess I have to F Biden in order to be able to C Cheney. shudder

Vice President I'd Like (to) Fuck.

I've already seen comments reflecting the same idea on my old newspaper's Web site. I quote: "I'd be happy to look at that rack for the next four years."

Another highlight:

At least Sarah is a lifelong member of the NRA. And that's a better credential than many of the other potential candidates.
