Bad Hair Day?

Just to clarify: Clinton did get a $200 haircut on a plane at LAX; what turned out to be untrue was that air traffic was held up during that time. And Edwards' costly snipping (blame inflation) came out because he disclosed it in his FEC spending report.

Another potential flap for Edwards, as observed by Roger Simon:

"Does John Edwards include Jews in his prayers? Or Muslims? Or Hindus? Or any other non-Christians?

"He didn't the other day. The other day, in order to commemorate those killed at Virginia Tech, Edwards led a prayer 'in Christ's name' . . .

"Edwards has a perfect right to pray publicly or privately any way he wants to. But people who are not Christians often feel left out of prayers like his."

I think it's fair to say the president is in the minority on this one:

"President Bush said Monday that the Congressional testimony of Attorney General Alberto R. Gonzales last week, roundly panned by members of both parties, in a way had 'increased my confidence in his ability to do the job.' "

Apparently he did a heckuva job.

"Attorney General Alberto Gonzales is trying to do something few have done: Outlive a Washington scandal. And he's trying to do it with little or no support from Republicans in Congress," says the Boston Globe.

And look! The Gonzo-Meter is down, from 95 percent to 85 percent.

Here's an objective headline in the New York Post, about Harry Reid:
