Okay, now Mike Huckabee is complaining about Mitt Romney taking the skin off his KFC chicken. Just when you thought the campaign couldn’t get any weirder – culinary advice from the guy who used to deep-fry squirrels.

With former Michigan star Chris Webber set to rejoin the Warriors, did he ask them to temporarily stop using the slogan. “Warriors basketball, it’s a great time out?”
(for anyone too young to get that one, 1993 NCAA title game Michigan-North Carolina. Google it :))

More primary craziness. The state of Florida moved their primary early in violation of Democratic rules. The party told them if they did not move it back they would lose all their delegates to the National convention. The state ignored the edict, was stripped of its delegates. And all the major candidates signed a pledge not to campaign in Florida.
But that was BSC – before South Carolina. Now Hillary Clinton is making three fundraising appearances in Florida Tuesday, where she was leading in the polls, and plans a speech there to thank supporters. She also is now calling for Florida’s delegates to be seated at the convention.
In poker terms, this is like agreeing to a misdeal for a hand and then realizing you are behind but holding a pair of queens.
Or in college football terms, saying nothing bad about the BCS until the AP or coaches poll ranks you higher than they do, and then demanding the system be changed because you didn’t get a good bowl game. Say, if this presidency thing doesn’t work out, Senator Clinton could have a great future in college coaching..
