WAPO lists Haley Barbour in “Top 10 Republicans to watch” list
The Friday Line: Ten Republicans To Watch 9. Haley Barbour: There are those who mention Barbour’s name for the 2012 GOP nomination.

Big hire ahead for Tuberville AUBURN — A day or two after the Iron Bowl, Auburn coach Tommy Tuberville will sit down with Athletic Director Jay Jacobs for the football program’s long-awaited “postseason review.” Presumably, most of the talk will be about the offense, which has been at the center of Auburn’s problems during the…

Longtime Senate spending leaders departing
The Associated Press, 11/20/8 They are old bulls both, legendary for fiercely lording over the Senate Appropriations Committee and funneling billions to their home states. But while Sens. Robert Byrd, D-W.Va., and Ted Stevens, R-Alaska, will no longer be leading the panel, the congressional habit of doling out earmarks is unlikely to change. If anything,…

Race played its usual role in Mississippi voting this month
The Northeast Mississippi Daily Journal Editorial, 11/20/8 The Nov. 4 election did more than result in the election of the first African-American president. It well could have sounded the death knell of the Nixon-era-born Republican Southern Strategy that for three decades converted the once-solid Democratic South to a GOP bastion. Mississippi began soldiering along with…

Tobacco: State can finally start to catch up
The Clarion-Ledger Editorial, 11/20/8 When then-state Attorney General Mike Moore was the first to successfully sue Big Tobacco for its responsibility in smoking-related illnesses, it appeared Mississippi would lead the nation in such health issues.

Whatever it is isn’t enough in Saban’s world
Whatever it is isn’t enough in Saban’s world What is, is. Sometimes that sounds like a cop-out, an act of resignation, as if to say, “nothing is going to change, so why talk about it?” It is one of Alabama coach Nick Saban’s favorite answers when he is asked one of those hypothetical questions he…
