When Tapper writs that Watts "has never been one for introspection," he may already have the understatement of the year. Watts simply can't figure out why he's been unable to change GOP policies antipathetic towards minorities, or his own party's recently-reexposed "Southern Strategy," but dislikes that the party that actually votes for minority concerns would mention that for political gain.

Combine that with his corruption as a corporation commissioner here, his illegitimate child he refused to acknowledge while telling national audiences that "Character is what you do when no one is looking," and you've got a guy who seems better suited to his new goal of running a PR firm than to being a Congressman. Though after reading about Watts being stopped six times in one day by Oklahoma policemen for DWB, I have a little more appreciation of perhaps why he lost his temper at an airport policeman in fall 2001...

And oh, how we've needed it.

Does anyone doubt that if Bill Frist was a Democratic Senate leader that Rush Limbaugh and others would be calling him "kitten Kevorkian" several times a day? I don't.

A long, long story of why Miami deserved to lose its 34-game "winning streak," why Ohio State played a better game, why no one really likes Miami, and how the BCS wound up providing a great game and a deserved result that no other system could. Not for Miami fans who are busy crying in their cocaine stashes.
