No big surprise to see Haiti still in the news. Today is the 1 week anniversary of the awful 7.0 earthquake that struck off their coast last Tuesday. A massive rescue and clean up effort is still underway and people are still struggling in Port-au-Prince and in other areas of Haiti. We will probably continue to hear about Haiti and their earthquake for the remainder of the 2010 year. John Travolta that appears 2nd on the list at Yahoo keywords for today is also Haiti related. John Travolta and other stars are trying to put their footprint on the relief efforts in Haiti.

The other big news story for today is in Massachusetts. A huge turn out for the voting in that state as they try to replace the late Ted Kennedy and his seat in the Senate. The reason this political race has become so popular is due to the healthcare bill that President Obama is trying to get passed. It’s not a good bill and hopefully the residents of Massachusetts will vote Republican, so they can stop this bogus healthcare bill the Government is trying to force down our throats. Scott Brown is the man we need to win and if he can defeat Martha Coaxley in this heated senate race in Massachusetts, we can take one step closer to putting a stop to this health care bill. Today’s election in Massachusetts is not about democrats or republicans, it’s a battle for the American people and forcing more fees and taxes on us. We need to fight for a smaller government and not a larger one.

The Tonight Show is on Yahoo for the debate between Conan and Jay Leno for the Tonight Show’s time slot. Some signs are coming out today that NBC might be planning to return Jay Leno back to his regular spot. This would not be a good choice for NBC and they will pay if they remove Conan O’Brien from the slot he has worked for and the one Jay Leno didn’t want 5 years ago. No one wanted to see Leno in prime time and they certainly don’t want to watch Jay Leno at bedtime.
