Newt Gingrich backed off of his statement that Sonia Sotomayor is a racist. I think Newt just got weak at the knees. Support for Sotomayor is dropping.
Roy Barnes made it official: he is running for Governor next year. He is already polling well. Everybody seems to be reacting, especially David Poythress, who made it perfectly clear that he will not leave the race.
