Raindrops keep fallin' on my head.

Texas Gov. Perry publicly prayed for rain.
For days there was no rain in Texas.
Then Gov. Perry announced his candidacy for president.
That same day there was rain in Texas.

Sounds to me like a deal was made down there.

Mediocrites* says

"Mediocrity deserves some representation on the Supreme Court, too. Doesn't it?"
A paraphrase of comments by Roman Hruska(R) NE in defense of Nixon Supreme court nominee G. Harold Carswell. Carswell had been criticised as being mediocre.

Hruska's actual words were "Even if he were mediocre, there are a lot of mediocre judges and people and lawyers. They are entitled to a little representation, aren't they, and a little chance? We can't have all Brandeises, Frankfurters and Cardozos."

*Mediocrites was a mythical Greek philosopher who never really got going. I first heard of him from some graduate students in Lubbock, TX in 1964.
