Cindy Sheehan for Senator?
Cindy Sheehan thinks she may actually be able to beat Senator Feinstein because she is threatening Feinstein if she doesn’t filibuster Alito.
Personally, I would love to see Cindy take Feinstein on because she would lose by a landslide.

Fallout for Frey After Appearing on Oprah Today
As you may know Oprah had on author James Frey today to discuss why he lied in his book - the one she promoted as her book club choice. (Video will follow soon)
Publishers Weekly in a special email sent just moments ago is reporting:
After James Frey’s painful trip to Oprah’s couch this afternoon—the author sat through a live taping of the talk show with a stunned look as journalists and Oprah skewered him for fictionalizing key elements of his memoir A Million Little Pieces—Doubleday/Anchor, announced it will be adding both a publisher’s note and author’s note to all future editions of the book.
Frey’s hardcover publisher Nan Talese, who appeared alongside the author on the Oprah broadcast, made mention of the changes on-air. In its statement, Doubleday/Anchor noted that while it initially stood by Frey, after further questioning of the author, the house has “sadly come to the realization that a number of facts have been altered and incidents embellished.” Doubleday/Anchor apologized to the public “for any unintentional confusion surrounding the publication” of Pieces.
The company said that no new copies of the book will be shipped and it will not go back to press for new editions without the two notes. The notes will also be posted on randomhouse.com as well as mailed to booksellers to insert in existing copies. Books with the update could be headed to bookstores by next month. —Rachel Deahl
And the website The Book Standard has the following article which states, “You betrayed millions of readers,” Oprah Winfrey said to James Frey on live TV today, after opening her show by apologizing to fans for her October book-club selection, then apologizing for her defense of its author, Frey, on CNN’s Larry King Live this month. Frey appeared on the show this morning to discuss the controversy surrounding his 2003 memoir, A Million Little Pieces.”
