Just a couple quick links that caught my eye this morning.

++ Bush's approval ratings slip to another new low, 30%.

++ Corrupt, bribe-taking Louisisana Rep William Jefferson won the runoff election and gets to keep his seat. Bleh.

++ "Banker to Poor" recieves Nobel Peace Prize.

++ BBC asks, Should more countries be allowing votes at 16?. Interesting.

++ NYT: After a 217-year march of major presidential nominees who were, without exception, white and male, the 2008 campaign may offer voters a novel choice.

++ American power and its limits.

++ NYT: A growing number of programs use tax dollars to pay for religious activities aimed at prisoners, recovering addicts, job seekers and others.

++ Like the nation, military families divided on Iraq.
