No Runny Eggs

(Long H/T trail – Kathryn Jean Lopez/The Corner via DaveM/AoSHQ)

Adam Yoshida (who was obviously more sober than I), dug out the fact that the gay general is on the LGBT Americans for Hillary Steering Committee. And you wonder why a whole lot of conservatives had a very bad feeling about the ClintonNewsNetwork/BoobTube debate. Lopez adds that this wasn’t the first time that Kerr was mixing it up with ‘Rats, as he was on Ketchup Boy’s Steering Committee.

And some people wonder why a whole lot of conservatives are very distrustful of the Clinton News Network.

(Editor’s note; dunno how I didn’t unleash a few f-bombs on this one; those Blues are really hitting me. I bow to the master.)

Once again, I’ll be rolling with the CoverItLive software. Before I lose the audience to the full bumper crop of those live-blogging listed immediately below (I’ll update and correct as I find them), I’ll quickly refresh you on how I live-blog: Because I am not the fastest typist in the world, I paraphrase a lot. I’ll probably also swear a lot (I’ll be downing Labatt Blue like there’s no tomorrow), and I’ll almost certainly be taking shots at everybody involved before the night is through. The questions will be in italics, the candidates’ comments, paraphrased as they’ll be, will be in normal type, and any smackdowns I need to deliver will be in parentheses.

Now, here’s a very partial list of who else is going to be live-blogging this thing:
– Michelle and Bryan live-vlogging at Hot Air (That should be the live link. You do have a monitor big enough to put their vlog and my meager efforts up, don’t you? This IS 2007, and a 19″ monitor at 1280×1054 is the bare-bones minimum nowadays.)
– Allahpundit has what may be the smallest open thread in Hot Air history (sorry AP; timing is everything)
– Things are sure busy in the Hot Air camp; Michelle has a live thread on her own site.
– Jim Lynch at bRight & Early
– Jim Geraghty (I think I’ll have to keep the blog home with this one; if memory serves, Geraghty puts up new posts rather than make people refresh one particular post)
– Brian at Liberty Pundit (he’ll also be using the CoverItLive software)
– Mary Katharine Ham is on the scene
– Patrick Ruffini will be joining her (lucky bastich ;-)
– Stephen Green will be drunkblogging again, with the comments thread separated as usual (I’ll probably be matching him beer-for-martini; time to start)
– Free Republic will certainly be lively (live thread added 6:17 pm)
– Ace checked in right after this thing went up (and, yes, I checked all my feeds right at 5:59)
– Brennan also checks in
– Team Fred has Sean Hackbarth on the case, along with audio.

If you’re wondering why I switched to Labatt, it’s the price and the inavailability of Sam Adams Double Bock.

This time, they’re from Stephen Green. There’s too many to steal and embed here, so head on over to PajamasMedia to watch them. You definitely do not want to miss the question to Ron Paul.

Revisions/extensions (3:25 pm 11/28/2007) – Just because I can…

While we wait for ultimate in stupidity (Frosty the Snowman to make a return engagement on CNN), here’s a couple more items for the “Stupid Party” pile:

– (H/T – the ripped-off Slublog) Sinistar, the guy behind doubleplusundead, found out that Minnesota GOP vice-chair Michael Barrett has been ripping off the material of various “lesser-known” bloggers (as if AoS HQ, the 2007 Weblog Awards Best Conservative Blog, is “lesser known”) and passing it off as his own. Barrett refused to do the right thing, which would be apologize and start attributing stuff he borrows. Instead, he took the cowards’ way out and after mumbling out a semi-apology, “hung it up” (I give him 3 months before he’s back to stealing, only from a new blog).

– (H/T – Dad29) It seems the Virginia GOP is insisting on participants in its Presidential primary February 12 sign “loyalty oaths” to support the official nominee (especially if it’s the hand-picked one of the “R”NC, Rudi Giuliani). The Roanoke Times rips them, mostly deservedly-so. Suggestion for the Virginia GOP; if you can’t stand a semi-open primary, do caucuses.

I’m still in a funk. Thankfully, MKH and William Smith did the prep for me. It’s good to have a feed reader.

Just as a reminder, whether I am still in a funk or just drunk, I’ll be live-blogging this thing:
