As the Democratic presidential candidate race winds to a close
(hopefully), we're still talking about the same old subjects:
electability, campaign gaffes, superdelegates, etc. A few months
ago, I wrote about how superdelegates could very well determine our
next president, and now two of those delegates are reaching out to
us college students.

I'm usually not one for farewell columns. I often find them
tacky and self-serving, but alas, after three years at this paper,
I find myself longing to write one.

The face of Madison has changed frequently over the past few
years with the addition of numerous high rise apartments. The
recent reconstruction of University Square makes many wonder when
it will stop, but, as much as it pains me to say it, this is
actually good for the housing market in Madison.

As an ardent Barack Obama supporter, last Friday caused some
serious distress. While reading his reported remarks from the San
Francisco fund raiser, I cringed, realizing two things: He was
absolutely correct, and this was going to be a story for days to
come.

With the presidential race at a standstill, we're stuck,
anxiously awaiting the Pennsylvania primary and the May 6 races to
see if we come away with a clear nominee. As it increasingly looks
like this race could go all the way to convention, Wisconsin could
feel the effects in some unexpected ways.

In one of the most despicable campaigns this state has ever
seen, Burnett County Judge Michael Gableman beat incumbent Justice
Louis Butler in Tuesday's state Supreme Court election by just
20,000 votes.

As a journalist, the First Amendment is paramount. When the
Founders wrote, Congress shall make no law ... abridging the
freedom of speech, or of the press,"" they intended to give voice
to the people. We could never silence opposition if we wished to
escape the tyranny of British rule. In an increasingly digital age,
we've had to revisit these rights when it comes to blogging.

Think back to last summer. The senate Democrats had a budget
with $1.7 million in tax increases and the Republicans hated it.
Then they snuck Healthy Wisconsin - that little $15 billion tax
increase - into the budget and all hell broke loose. Long story
short: We didn't get a budget until October. Well folks, Healthy
Wisconsin is back, but don't expect it to go anywhere any time
soon.

We thought it'd be over by now, but here we sit - it's March 6
and we have no idea who will be the Democratic nominee for
president. After losing 11 contests in a row and seemingly losing
momentum, Hillary Clinton won two huge states last night and is
crowning herself as the comeback kid. But what does this really
mean? Actually, not much.

It's been more than a year since the two Democratic candidates
announced their intentions to run for president. We thought we'd
have a nominee by now. Feb. 5 was supposed to decide it all. So,
after a year of campaigning and numerous primaries, we now know
this could all come down to the convention in August - and the
votes of 796 people.

If you're Ann Coulter, you live in a dream world - a world where
it's OK to call Christians perfected Jews"" and to refer to John
Edwards as a ""faggot."" It's also a world where Hillary Clinton is
more conservative than John McCain. Yes, you read that correctly.

After the Alcohol Licensing Density Plan passed last fall, I'm
sure many of us hoped the crackdown on alcohol use in Madison would
die down. Although we didn't support it, we eventually accepted the
fact that no new bars would be in town anytime soon. Well, they're
at it again, and it's a familiar foe - Capital Neighborhoods,
Inc.

After fighting the university for funding the past two years,
UW-Madison's Roman Catholic Foundation may have finally won a
battle, but they're still likely to lose the war.

With the news that Chancellor John Wiley will step down next
September it seems the future of UW-Madison is at a crossroads. In
a presentation given to the UW System Board of Regents last Friday,
Provost Patrick Farrell said, while UW-Madison has been an
extremely successful university, that success is not guaranteed to
continue. Farrell is right, but his solution - to increase tuition
- is dead wrong.

Rudy Giuliani defines a political hit job"" as: releasing a
story the day of a Republican debate proving a leading presidential
candidate covered up expenses to see his mistress, which he billed
to taxpayers. Some people (hint: they're called journalists) would
call that a story. Something's fishy here.

My first reaction to hearing there was a bill in the Wisconsin
state Legislature seeking to ban text messaging while driving was
this: ROTFLMAO! OK, not really, but let's look at the proposed bill
seriously for a second.

If you asked most students on this campus who Eli Judge is, they
would probably recognize the name even if they didn't know
specifically that he is their campus alder. If you ask those same
students who Ashok Kumar is, their chances of knowing who he is are
considerably lower.

Is waterboarding a form of torture? It's a yes or no question
Mr. Mukasey. Here, I'll even give you the definition: Waterboarding
is an interrogation technique that consists of immobilizing an
individual and pouring water over his or her face to simulate
drowning. Still no answer?
