On This Day In History: Boom
In 74 A.D., Mt. Vesuvius erupted. And if you're interested in catastrophic eruptions I highly recommend Simon Winchester's Krakatoa, a delightful read from my summer reading list....
Hildebrand Vows to Fight On
Washington Post reports:Steve Hildebrand, Daschle's campaign manager, said Thune, who won by two percentage points after losing a Senate race two years before, is likely to have a strong challenger when he seeks reelection in 2010. He's still going to...
