That's it -- they're taking over!

Ok, look. Obama's our next President, I get it. But does he have to stick in the faces over every redneck racist out there? It's widely believed that he's going to nominate Eric H. Holder, Jr. for his Attorney General if he there's enough bipartisan support in the Senate.. And for those who have never heard of the man, who was the number 2 justice guy in the Clinton Administration, he's, uhm ... to steal a turn of phrase from my beloved Kevin & Bean show ... he's "president colored." If he's approved by Congress, Holder Jr. will be the first black AG. Which is all well and good, but the more important question is, what's the guy's story? I don't know much about him, but I imagine we'll all learn plenty in the coming months. And if Obama is doing what we all thought and hoped, and making the smart decision to surround himself with good folk, we'll think that Holder Jr. is a fine choice.
