- Obama serves Reid taste of Chicago Way (John Kass, Chicago Tribune)
- Chickens dancing, roosting in 5th District (John Kass, Chicago Tribune)
- Before Reversal, Senate Democrats Were Ready to Play Hardball Against Burris (Paul Bedard, US News) I love that headline.

- Why doesn't Bush get more credit? (John Hughes, CSM) Because highly polarizing figures rarely get an objective assessment of their failures from supporters or successes from their critics.
- Climate-change alarmism runs into a reality check (Robert Bradley, Houston Chronicle)
- How would Tony Romo have fared under Norv Turner’s watch? (Randy Galloway, FWST)
- Texans err by recklessly firing Riley (Richard Justice, Houston Chronicle) RJ expands a blog post defending buddies via rumor, innuendo, and sniping into a column doing the same! Meanwhile, one can’t help but think the Chronicle could improve considerably by ridding itself of several columnists and bringing on board Stephanie Stradley.
- Stoops' nickname – 'Big Game Bob' – won't survive this one (Kevin Sherrington, DMN) To be honest, it hadn’t survived his last few BCS appearances.

- Palm Pre Preview: Simply Amazing (Gizmodo) This device looks really sweet, AND will be exclusive to Sprint (my carrier), which is lacking in sweet devices. Unfortunately, it almost certainly will follow Sprint’s Instinct lead in requiring an upgrade from my (now-unavailable) SERO plan, which I’m not willing to give up ($28/month gets me 500 anytime mins, nights/weekends starting at 7pm, unlimited net, and unlimited texting on my EVDO Rev. A Treo, compared to the much more expensive “everything” plan for Instinct — no thanks!).
- Palm Pre's UI Has a Lot of Great Desktop Multitasking Habits (Gizmodo)
