Mid-afternoon Update

David Gregory to moderate Meet the Press. This makes me happy. Also, Brokaw will interview Obama this weekend.

Auto industry CEOs agree to cut their annual salaries to $1 a year, but only if they get bailed out. Which doesn't make sense to me, they're laying off workers like crazy --why not take the cut now?

New open senate seat for 2010. The news just gets better and better.

A very compelling case against the Holder nomination from Richard Cohen (who I don't usually care for).
"But the pardon cannot be excepted. It suggests that Holder, whatever his other qualifications, could not say no to power."

And, oh yeah, HRC is the new secretary of State. An interesting historical perspective on the position. Also, here's a very good piece on how Obama and Clinton line up on foreign policy (hint: a lot)

Today is the Senate runoff in Georgia. Think good thoughts!
