Some serious moonlighting on the immediate horizon, so I’ll get out the chain to my desktop.
Here are some remains of the day:
* Sen. David Vitter, running for LA governor, says he might consider supporting Medicaid expansion, undercutting Bobby Jindal and Bill Cassidy.
* Marion Barry memoir reflects hitherto unknown impulse by Hizzoner to look respectable rather than simply clever and powerful.
* Iowa redux: Tennessee Supreme Court justices being targeted by conservatives in retention election this fall.
* At Ten Miles Square, Jonathan Bernstein argues that Cantor loss will have unique repercussions because Dave Brat had no national Tea Party support.
* At College Guide, Jill Barshay reviews the arguments over how to measure the actual cost to taxpayers of federal student loans.
And in non-political news:
* American Top 40 host Casey Kasem dies at 82.
