Nice find, Alex. Bloggingheads discussions and debates are a little bit off the beaten path, but I really should look at them more often.

Breaking news:
Vision America's Scarborough has endorsed Mike Huckabee for President, making things even more interesting for SB C's Richard Land; who up until this time was on the Ronnie floyd branch of SBC politics as opposed to Frank Page; all discussed in the NY Times Kirkpatrick mag article.
