Heard yesterday that they weren't pursuing charges, but it was great to hear from Rep. Cannon and her attorney personally.

He regular show is on MSNBC is Deadline: White House on at 4pm ET on MSNBC, she was on there too today. She was White House Communications Director under George W Bush, so she knows how these things work, but she said she ceased being a Republican after the nomination of Sarah Palin. She's great, so glad she's on "our side" now! And I was also glad to hear from Rep. Cannon. If anything, what happened to her is going to ignite even more opposition to what's happening in Georgia!

When she first appeared on Rachel's show - and Rachel liked her - I didn't get it since she worked for George W Bush (and she's still fond of him). But I've listened to her a lot and she's smart and knowledgeable, she's become someone I listen to because she has the background to understand what's going on and is definitely "one of us" now.

And I often post videos from her show since not only is she really informative, but she also has some really good guests, like Steve Schmidt! And I like her hair, too, LOL. This was from today:
