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.”

 I usually pay at least passing attention to Illinois politics, but I somehow missed this little tidbit: This state now has a law that would require presidential electors to vote for the winner of the national popular vote, if enough other states adopt the same requirement.

 Is this the beginning of the end of the Electoral College? Let’s hope so (although Nate Silver says HERE that it might not be).
