The Northeast Mississippi Daily Journal Editorial, 8/17/8 It’s not exactly top of mind, but there’s another U.S. Senate race in Mississippi this year besides the one between Roger Wicker and Ronnie Musgrove.

Forecast for Senate race: Nasty and getting nastier
The Sun Herald, 8/17/8 They say politics makes strange bedfellows. Well, it makes strange enemies, too. Take Ronnie Musgrove and Roger Wicker, now in a no-holds-barred match for Trent Lott’s old Senate seat. Never mind the fact that they look like twins; these two guys are – er… were – very good friends. They roomed…

Medicaid: Recipients still uncertain
The Clarion-Ledger Editorial, 8/17/8 Mississippi’s ongoing Medicaid melodrama continues with recipients, hospitals and officials alike unsure of the specifics of Gov. Barbour’s proposed solution.

SNOWDEN – A Political “Education” – alleges state tax dollars funding Rep’s DNC trip
A Political “Education” Delegates and alternates should pay our own way. Both parties have better uses for their funds, and it’s not as if anyone in either party would expect THE TAXPAYER to foot the bill for their purely political fun and games. Or, would they? Think again. Shockingly (and it IS shocking) Mississippi taxpayers…

Hey, coach: open your eyes, close your doors
Hey, coach: open your eyes, close your doors Tommy Tuberville did some things the past two Saturdays that were not unprecedented but, taken in their totality, were totally out of sync with his media-friendly reputation. He closed Auburn’s first two scrimmages of fall camp to the press and the general public, although Saturday’s event was…

What’s left in the beef plant saga?
The five-year saga of the Mississippi beef plant and its short, corrupt life may be coming to an end. Or, depending on who’s talking, it may not.

Tim Kalich – Are feds trying to aid Wicker’s election?
I usually shy away from conspiracy theories. When the Democrats and their attorneys began claiming last year that the Bush administration was using its prosecutorial might to target opposition candidates and their major financial supporters, I greeted the allegation with a skeptical eye.
