Here's a hint: She's not Hillary! Plus: Talk radio's paranoid delusions and a Brazilian diva Madonna could aspire to.

    Almost the piece

    I had to read all the way to the last page, but there it is. Madonna. Jeez Camille, what is it about her? Are you getting paid by her publicist? She can dance OK, sorta carry a tune and definitely can't act. Just another pop culture hack forced down our collective throats for far too long. And this relates to Obama's choice of running mate how?

    BTW my governor, Janet Napalitano, should be appointed to the Supreme Court or maybe Attorney General. We will miss her as the progressive voice of reason here in AZ, but it's time she takes her place on the national level.
