MSNBC: "Two years after President Bush first nominated her, the Senate voted 56-43 Wednesday to confirm Janice Rogers Brown as a judge on the court of appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit. One Democrat - Sen. Ben Nelson of Nebraska - joined Republicans in voting for confirmation. Following Brown's confirmation, the Senate voted 67-32 to end a filibuster of former Alabama Attorney General William Pryor - the last of the three nominees whom seven Democrats agreed to clear in exchange for Republicans not banning the stalling tactic. A confirmation vote is set for Pryor on Thursday at 4 p.m." Thanks to TalkLeft for the link.

Political Wire: "Michael Cornfeld, a researcher who studied the impact of weblogs on politics, believes President Bush made the best use of the Internet in the 2004 presidential campaign, MediaPost reports. The Bush campaign 'used the Internet to find volunteers and then gave them information to spread -- via any medium at hand -- to friends and neighbors.'"
Bull Moose: "The Moose proclaims that the Swift Boat slime accusations should be put at the bottom of the right wing fever swamp from where it came...John Kerry was and is a war hero. He was the victim of a despicable GOP smear campaign on behalf of two men who took a pass when their country was engaged in a fight with the commies in a far off land."
