Late Edition (CNN): Host Wolf Blitzer has Paulson then surrogates: Dianne Feinstein for Hillary and Pat Leahy for Barry. He also chats with an economic advisor from the Clinton and the McCain campaigns.

As long as we see surrogates, the fight is ongoing and probably becoming nastier. For that reason only, I kind of temporarily dig surrogates.

What will the government do to protect the U.S. economy? I’ve a novel approach: Leave it alone. Paulson won’t say that, but on the trail, McCain is making similar noises.

Nancy Pelosi is unbalanced and unstable, and she’s not even fun.

I’ll have the review here at RedState on the morrow. (Afternoon, that is.)
