The Vote Again 2010 Campaign is a non-partisan collaboration of 30 organizations all dedicated to a common goal: making sure that young people get out to the polls each and every November. The people behind the group were active in the 2008 and the 2006 elections, and they’re back this year urging young people to go to the polls on November 2nd, and share their stories and videos through the Vote Again 2010 YouTube channel encouraging them to vote.

Holy Crap
Why is Matt Rush running for land commissioner? You really need to watch the entire video to get the full flavor and extent of his remarks (not to mention the treacly background music), but here are a few nuggets:
If we want to be a Christian nation again, Christian people have to start standing up, runnning for office again … if we ever want to become a Christian nation again. That’s the reason I got involved in politics.
… For those of us who are Christians and we are proud to say we are Christians, we need to start standing up being proud of it again and we need to take the fight to the enemy. So I encourage each and every one of you to get involved.
We’ve got to start standing up because we are one nation under god and we need to make sure we take that back to our legislative process.
Notice that Rush doesn’t discuss any issues pertinent to the job of land commissioner. I guess he thinks it’s enough that people know he will battle to put his brand of Christianity in the drivers seat …

Twenty-nine years ago (as of the end of October), Robert brought Merri Rudd home to dinner at Preston Road. That’s when John Merck and I met Mer. None of us could have imagined what that was the beginning of: the rest of my life. Thanks, Robert. I wish you as much good fortune as you brought me.

Happy Birthday, John Stewart! And many more.
John Stewart has been my friend longer than anyone outside of my family – more than 47 years. We live very different lives – his in London, mine in Albuquerque – and we don’t communicate frequently enough (but I’m guilty of that with everyone I know – it’s not you, it’s me). Still, we’re good friends.
