Timothy Carignan: Sure, they’re trying to copy the innocent “Love Is” comic. However, Jeremy and his girlfriend are horny teenagers, and now they’re in the comics naked?

I can make light of this because my son came away with only a few bruises, but…
Riding his bike through Boston this morning and a delivery driver from a local bakery, his view of the road partially obscured by a bus, apparently figures Hey, it’s Boston, the middle of the day, nobody’s going to be on the road, so he just shoots out semi-blindly and, well, you know what happens next.
After totaling my son’s bike, he doesn’t bother to stop and see whether he’s totaled my son, and he keeps driving. Because who’s going to know it was him, right? In a van with the bakery’s name all over it, leaving the bakery’s parking lot, with a million witnesses around. Way to make a clean getaway, dude…
Police expect to nail his ass any time now.

I’m wondering whether anybody knows… When the President travels to campaign for, say, a gubernatorial candidate, who pays for the Air Force 1 expenses, security for the President, police overtime onsite, etc?
And just for the record, I can’t speak for Virginia, but no matter what you might hear, the New Jersey election was not a referendum on either Obama or the Democratic Party: it was a referendum on Jon Corzine. When New Jerseyans went into the voting booth yesterday, Barack Obama was the last thing on our minds: We were too busy holding our noses as we decided whether the thought of reelecting Jon Corzine was distasteful for us to vote for Chris Christie.
Personally, I voted for Chris Daggett, since in this case voting for the third party candidate wasn’t taking a vote away from any decent candidate. He had me at “I’m not Corzine or Christie.”
As it happens, despite recent polls predicting up to 20% of the vote for Daggett, he ended up with about 5%. Which means, God help us, New Jerseyans got the governor we deserve.
