Mitch Kokai says Richard Moore should have used a Joe Walsh song.

In a post on The Locker Room, the John Locke Foundation blogger writes that the Democratic gubernatorial candidate erred by using an Eagles' song in a recent YouTube ad.

One wonders if Moore might have fared better by choosing an Eagles song written by Joe Walsh. It's doubtful Walsh remembers writing, recording, or copyrighting anything in the 1970s.

Hmm. Moore could certainly go for "Life's Been Good" if he wins the primary. For now, though, Dome thinks the Democratic race is best summed up by a Don Henley song: "Dirty Laundry."

Kick 'em when they're up, kick 'em when they're down... 

Mitch Kokai warns not to make too much out of crossover.

In a post on The Locker Room, he says that the deadline for legislation to pass the House or the Senate is artificial.

Legislative leaders can still gut a bill to create a vehicle for their own legislation or insert a special provision in the budget, he notes.

Good and bad bills still have life in them; if they've not crossed over, that life now depends on the preferences of the people who wield the gavels.
