Someone threatened Sam Katz, running as Republican candidate for mayor in Philadelphia, with a firebomb.
I guess this will come out as spiteful or mean-spirited, but so fucking what?

For the past few weeks I have been totally enthralled with a forgotten southern gospel band called The Sunshine Girls.

I can’t point it out enough: read today’s Talking Points memo, and read it now.

Mr Ashcroft’s roadshow
