Pick, pick, pick. That must be similar to cloture. (Sorry -- journalist, then editor, then technical writer...)

It doesn't "beg the question."

It "prompts the question," or "raises the question," but "begging the question" is a logical fallacy that you and every other journalist should read up on, because in your efforts to sound intelligent, you're pissing off people who actually are:

Ted Kennedy never suffered a stroke. He had a seizure related to his brain tumor.

Comparing the abbreviated Senate primary race to a typical statewide race is pretty naive. Plus, I think the Senate race helped them with name recognition, and they have developed state-wide political organizations that would certainly help again.

And Khazei is laying the ground for something with his anti-casino meeting. I've thought he'd do better on the state-level anyways.

Anyways, they said they weren't, but I'd bet good money that we haven't heard the last of them in the political arena.

You missed Brian Herr, who will be running as a Republican for state treasurer.

The Auditor's race looks like one strong Independent (Kamal Jain) with a clear, distinct vision...and a growing field of Republican and Democrat political opportunists who all blend together in a continuation of the existing establishment.

Neither was able to attract 100,000 voters in a statewide race. About twice as much as Green Party candidate Grace Ross in 2006.
