Quick Bits

-Good analysis from BBCNews on the Pakistani Supreme Court reopening old corruption cases against President Zardari and the PPP leadership.

-Mexico City votes for marriage equality. I was all worried about NJ beating us to it, I never saw this coming.

-Rudy Giuliani gives 2010 a miss entirely. So it looks like any real fighting that'll go on in New York next year will be in primaries. Guess I'd better get registered.

-No good single link for this, but the health bill is looking better than I thought at my last post. In particular, the Medicare commission isn't as neutered as I thought, and the .90 cents thing was just lowered, not eliminated. Even Dr. Dean has reluctantly come around to the "just pass it" camp.
