Remember That "Smoke-Filled Room" Everyone Told You About?
That smoke-filled room you've heard so much about is apparently where the members of the Democrats' Rules and Bylaws Committee are as of 5:30pm on Saturday. They adjourned for lunch at 3:00 and have yet to return to the meeting room. Rumors of back-room deals are flying about. We could be waiting a lot longer, too: the committee members had "5 1/2 hours of cocktails, chicken dinners, and coffee" last night, according to James Pindell. Then again, they were up until 1:30. Maybe they're just catching some collective shut-eye.
Somehow I doubt it. I'll get you more news as soon as the meeting resumes.

You know..., if I compare the caliber of Presidents we had back in the dark days of the smoke-filled-room selection process against the caliber of Presidents we've gotten under a primary selcetion process, I'd have to say the smoke-filled-room doesn't seem to have served Americans all that badly.
The advantage goes to Obama yet again then ... he's a smoker, Clinton isn't
