California is short $21 billion. All that haggling, and even the Great California Garage Sale, and go figure. You'll also find it no surprise that Republicans are saying, "this time, no new taxes", and Democrats are saying "this time, no cuts". Kind of like an I Love Lucy rerun. Same plot. Same outcome. The University of California can't wait for the next steps. The Board of Regents...

Earlier this week, the US Preventive Health Services Task Force published a report which concluded that the benefits to women under age 50 from mammograms were limited, and therefore regular mammograms for women age 40 - 50 should be discontinued for women without certain risk factors.

While Doug Hoffman is going off the deep end in NY-23, charging that ACORN stole the election for Democrat Bill Owens, (I mean this is so ludicrous - almost all the charges leveled against ACORN have been about voter-registration fraud, of which there have been a few minor cases, and the GOP has tried, unsuccessfully, to charge ACORN with actual vote fraud, but to charge ACORN with vote-counting fraud,...

Lawmakers are still stuck, according to the latest post-leaders meeting series of press gaggles. “I would compromise — but right now I’m compromising against zero,” Gov. David Paterson said.

In a hypothetical head-to-head match-up, the former mayor is way out in front of the former congresswoman, 54-40. One-third of Gillibrand's fellow Democrats say they would support Giuliani, who's also competitive in the Democrat-dominated...
