No longer will online fantasy leagues be limited to just sports, for now there is Fantasy Congress!

Yet another platform for Joph and gbaji to spar upon!

I only glanced at the site but what on earth are you actually setting up or doing?

Anyway, not deserving of its own thread but worthy of mention is the fact that the Republican race for president has been saved. Alan Keyes has announced his candidacy
Some press release wrote:
On Friday, Sept. 14, Alan Keyes filed a Statement of Candidacy (Form 2) with the Federal Election Commission--thus officially announcing as a Republican candidate for President of the United States.

Keyes told Janet Parshall, host of a nationally syndicated radio show, that he's "unmoved" by the lack of moral courage shown by the other candidates, among whom he sees no standout who articulates the "key kernel of truth that must, with courage, be presented to our people."

You "draft" congressmen onto your team, and they get points depending on their voting, and based on how far their own proposals go in the ratification process.

Just like football, only it tracks different stats.

My impression of Alan Keyes was that he was libritarian, for some reason, but he is definately not.

Boost to the Repubs: he's the only candidate who is not a white male. In a few years it's going to be requisite to have a field that "looks like America" and not a field which looks like the membership of an Orange County country club.

Thing which may or may not help them: he's going to focus on abortion, an issue most American's disagree with the party on.

I don't think he has any realistic chance of winning the nomination. As far as I know he's never been elected.
