Coburn making the rounds
Tom Coburn has an idea to put pork spending online. Good idea. Unsurprisingly, his colleagues are generally opposed to the idea of accountability. He’s making the rounds talking about it.
Caught him on the local talk radio this morning. He endorsed Ed Bryant. When pressed, he said he and Bryant were roommates in college.
Update: In comments, JB clarifies that:
Bryant and Coburn weren’t roommates in college, it was when they were in the House together. Bryant lived with Coburn and six other Congressmen in a Capitol Hill rowhouse to save money.

Well, maybe we should vote for Bryant. Maybe some of Coburn’s good sense rubbed off when they were roommates. Maybe.
