Tuesday Open Thread

Seems about time to have one of these open thread thingys.  Some interesting stuff I saw:

  • Swing State Project upgraded CA-50 (Bilbray-R vs. Liebham-D) from Safe Republican to Likely Republican.  Liebham’s fundraising was fairly good, and the district is only R+4.6, certainly not out of the realm of possibilities.
  • Check out a nice SacBee interview with Sen. Darrel Steinberg about revenue.
  • The FBI is continuing its focus on public corruption, its 4th highest priority. Once again, Oakland seems to be in the crosshairs. sigh…
  • What else is going on?
