Applesauce
Pat Cunningham offers an unabashedly liberal perspective on national politics. A note of caution: The language gets a litttle salty on some of the sites to which this blog links. So, don’t say you weren’t warned. By the way, this blog’s name is inspired by the Will Rogers quote, “All politics is applesauce.” |

In a special election today in the 14th Congressional District of Illinois, Democrat Bill Foster defeated Republican Jim Oberweis to fill the vacancy created by the resignation of former House Speaker Dennis Hastert.
This district had been solidly Republican since forever, and the Hastert connection makes the political shift all the more dramatic. There’ll be a national buzz about this one for a few days.

THIS is a pretty clever little trick: Embarrass people into voting.

It’s still early at this writing, but Barack Obama is ON HIS WAY to an easy win over Hillary Clinton in today’s Wyoming caucuses.
Obama also is expected to win the Mississippi primary election on Tuesday.
