Will Lou Dobbs be the next governor of New Jersey?
The Newark Star-Ledger reports today that “several well-connected Republicans” in New Jersey have heard buzz that “CNN’s Lou Dobbs is thinking of running for governor of New Jersey.” Dobbs, who has reportedly “inquired about the steps necessary to start a campaign,” refused to deny that he is considering a run, only saying, “I’m just not going to comment.” A gubernatorial run by Dobbs would likely not be without controversy. The non-profit Hispanic Institute recently announced “a Latino boycott of CNN” largely because of Dobbs’s coverage of immigration issues.

Website peddles racially-charged ‘Sock Obama’ toy.
Last month, ThinkProgress noted that a bar owner in Georgia was selling t-shirts comparing Sen. Barack Obama (D-IL) to Curious George; last week, the Black Congressional Caucus Foundation received an t-shirt in the mail featuring a similar image. Continuing this racially-charged theme, a stuffed monkey toy called “The Sock Obama” has now been made available online:
TheSockObama™ is made with high quality knit materials to capture the nostalgic look of the Sock Monkey that we all know and love. Staying true to his root, he is hand stuffed with just enough filling to give him a firm, but huggable feel. The removable suit jacket offers two looks for this future President - All Business or Hands On.
