So I just picked up a rumor that Jim McDermott is looking at retiring soonishly, maybe in 2008. Furthermore, Ron Sims might be looking at a run for the nomination should that happen. I'd be kind of sad to see McDermott gone; he's such a wonderful kook. But I would love to see Ron Sims replace him. He's by far my favorite local politician, and it would be great to see what he could do in Congress.

"Ron Sims. Making New Orleans politics look good."
Okay, so I personally don't like him.
