In a potentially stunning or possibly mundane turn of events, California Senator Barbara Boxer has made the following non-announcement:

Today I am not announcing my support for, or opposition to the nomination of Judge John Roberts to the Supreme Court.

Stay tuned for further non-developments. (Thanks to Howard Bashman.)

  1. What else can we expect from “brain-dead” Boxer?

  5. What worries me about the Democratic senators is so many of them seem to lack the ability to be successful in fields outside of politics.I’m thinking of the Boxers, the Murrays, the Stabenows,etc.If we postulate that a serious person and a certain amount of intelligence are needed to be a US senator,why would anyone want people who havw no pre-Senate evedence of this.I think we can all agree if Stephen Vincent Benet had written a story,”THe Devil and Barbara Boxer”, Jabez Stone would be sweltering in Hell today.
