I’m in Georgia today, so I’ll join the EST crowd for lunch:

* At Salon, Tom Schaller notes how rapidly same-sex marriage has flipped from a conservative to a progressive wedge issue.

* TNR updates its carousel of hippie-baiting drawings on the cover of The Weekly Standard.

* Not looking too good for Dennis Kucinich on March 6.

* Breitbart death conspiracy theories abound.

* BYU professor’s comments on race revive unsettling debate among Mormons.

* Pollsters freaked out by threat of enforcement action against “push-polling” by NH Attorney General.

Back after a break.
