I'm working on a long post on Obama, the risk of incoherent narrative, and why that incoherence matters more electorally than politically.

But it's late here in Chicago, I have an early flight, and I just read Memeorandum which sent me to Sean Tevis' cartoon explanation for why he wants $9.00 from each of us to help him run for the Kansas state legislature.

Here's what I like - the substance of his issues; the style with which he presents them; and the basic idea of someone who presents his thinking in a language different from the typical politician-speak our government is so tightly bound up by.

I donated $10.00 immediately. Why the h**l don't we have candidates like that at home in California? How do I help find one? Bueller?
