Now guess which political demographic likes to buy pickup trucks.

The CEO of the company I contract for buys a new truck whenever the one he's driving suffers a problem. He's so rich that he just drops cash on a brand new, identical white Ford. His truck always has a permanent new car smell.

Politics unusual going on in Washington state:
http://fivethirtyeight.com/features/what-washington-state-can-teach-us-about-gridlock-in-the-other-washington/

quote:

The November vote, featuring a turnout 43 percent larger than August’s primary, was a much different election. The district’s modest contingent of Democratic voters, revolted by Didier’s brash brand of politics and encouraged by their own party leaders, supported Newhouse. Meanwhile, moderate Republicans simultaneously promoted Newhouse as a “conservative farmer and businessman” and pummeled Didier as an extremist. Newhouse was sworn into Congress this month.

This is also the 180th anniversary of the first attempted assassination of a President, Andrew Jackson. Richard Lawrence fired a shot at him outside the Capitol, but the gun misfired. Jackson then started to beat Lawrence with his cane. Lawrence pulled a second pistol and fired it point blank, but it also misfired.

The Smithsonian later test fired Lawrence's pistols and they both worked on the first attempt without issue.
