« No Bounce for Obama | Main | Playing Cards With An Empty Suit » August 1, 2008Bredesen WatchYesterday's USA Today carried Gov. Phil Bredesen's last-ditch attempt to get on Barack Obama's vice presidential short list. Today, via the Wall Street Journal, Phil threw in the towel. Exit Question 1: Since 1961, the cost of a gallon of gas has risen from 31 cents to $4 a gallon, a 13-fold increase.

Bredesen thinks healthcare costs rising faster than gasoline since he left high school in 1961 makes healthcare - not the cost of energy - the bigger economic issue, then what about the cost of government? Exit Question 2: Do they sell arugula at the Wal-Mart? Posted in Campaign Season
