Should have known you'd be on top of it.<br /> <br /> As or Jefferson -- unfortunately, I think we have to wait for the system to spit him back out. It will be slow, humiliating and painful. And not just for black people either. Pelosi's got a real PR problem on her hands here. Thanks CC. Hey Carmen — thanks for the correction. Should have known you’d be on top of it.
