So, you guys think the Democrat Powers That Be will be able to force Hillary out before June?
Discuss this, and anything else you’d like to talk about.

Friday Afternoon Open Thread
Personally, I think we should all talk about the really important things - like the Chargers chances in the next season (pre-season is only four months away!)…but, I know you guys would rather talk about politics n’ stuff…so, have at it

A Note on Comments
First off, we here at Blogs for Victory wish to apologise to our readers. Both Matt and I have been a bit out of the loop lately and have not been able to closely monitor the blog. The level of vituperation and vulgarity has risen greatly, and we suspect that it is at least in part orchestrated - a desire on the left to make this coming to this website a nasty experience, thus discouraging people from coming.
Well, we thank everyone for their patience and we are:
1. In the process of weeding out some of the worst offenders. If you believe someone has gone beyond the bounds of spirited political debate, please report it at the abuse link and we will investigate it and take action as necessary.
2. We ask everyone to remember that this is a PG-13 rated blog. We ban extreme vulgarity, and discourage even mild vulgarity.
3. We ask that everyone keep on topic - we provide a wide variety of topics and will be more free with Open Thread topics in the future, but when a topic is being discussed, we insist that people stick to the topic. As for why we might not have put up a thread about something a particular person cares about: we have lives, and thus might have missed it; it might be something we’re still pondering before putting up a comment (these do take some thought); it might be a subject which bores us. If you want to always comment about precisely what you want there are two options for you - start your own blog, or send us $1,000 per topic, in advance, and we will post a commentary on it at your command.
4. We know that this is the political season and passions will run higher and higher - we were here for the 2004 election, after all. Still, we do insist that the debate be maintained at a reasonable level - we expect the spirited back and forth and while its generally ok to call the authors idiots, we strongly discourage calling other commenters such names.
We thank you for your patience with us, and we hope that this blog will become a major part of your Campaign ‘08 reading.

Open Thread: Thursday Morning
Ok, boys and girls, here’s you big chance to just have at it…lefties, you want to endlessly rehash the reasons we went to war? Here’s you thread. RIghties, been burning for the 1,000th opportunity to make lefties look like fools over their views on the war? Here’s the place.
Alternately, you can discuss the continuing Obama saga; why Hillary is suddenly so quiet. Why recent polling shows McCain doing better and better against either part of HillBama. Why President Bush seems in such a fine mood these days. Why commodity prices took a dump the other day and why some have opined that oil prices will start to slide later this year.
Have at it.

Open Thread: Super Bowl
Do the Giants have a chance? I don’t think so - I’ll be rooting for them because the Patriots committed the unpardonable sin of football; knocking the Chargers out of the playoffs, but the plain fact of the matter seems to be that the Patriots are just the best team to ever play football, and I don’t think the Giants will deny them their perfect season.
What do you think?
UPDATE, by Matt Margolis: Mark, care to make a friendly wager on the Superbowl? Loser buys dinner when we’re in D.C. this week? Go Patriots!
UPDATE, by Mark Noonan: If I get 15 points, sure…
UPDATE, by Matt Margolis: Sounds good to me!
UPDATE, by Mark Noonan: …anyone know the most expensive place to eat in DC?
UPDATE, by Mark Noonan: Oh, my! Giants in the lead, whoda thunk it?
UPDATE, by Mark Noonan: I wonder what the going price for filet mignon is in DC?
UPDATE, by Matt Margolis: I can’t believe they lost.
UPDATE, by Matt Margolis: How does this sound Mark?
UPDATE, by Mark Noonan: Cool. I’ll buy the first round as a consolation prize.
