*The shocking news that the Bush Administration’s communications team in Iraq is staffed with (gasp!) people who support the Bush Administration’s policy in Iraq!
*John Kerry keeps his VP search quiet . . . as detailed by reports about that search in the New York Times. The news here is his apparent intention (if you believe this report) to name a VP nominee a month or so before the convention.
