So out of the muck, Sheila has pushed the idea of picking two candidates, one D and on R, to defeat in the fall. She nicely suggests an organization to start. She also describes Coble's (R, NC) libertarain opponent, supported by Dave Winer, Tara Grubb. Man, that would be a coup. Just the sort of thing they would say the geeks could never do.

Doc's got a nice email from Timothy Phillips (who has been a key contributor to the Eldred case from the start) pushing my hero Hank Perritt, and opposing Mary "Sonny thought copyright should be forever" Bono. These too would be great. But keeping political balance here is important -- knocking one D and one R (and best, with an L) is key.
