It is 6:28 a.m. and Sadie is here with me, Rosie in bed, Ben Bing and Darcy roaming around searching for lizards. 77.9 degrees in Palm Harbor Fla. , 38.5 degrees in Huntington, Ind.

FROM Michael steele:

Dear Chip,

I'm sure you've heard the news -- Barack Obama has been awarded the Nobel Peace Prize. It's a stunning, if not truly surprising, indication of just how meaningless a once honorable and respected award has become.

What has President Obama actually accomplished? It is unfortunate that the president's star power has outshined tireless advocates who have made real achievements working towards peace and human rights.

Even the normally fawning media have expressed shock at the clearly political and unmerited award. But the Democrats clearly see it differently, with DNC spokesman Brad Woodhouse stating "the Republican Party has thrown in its lot with the terrorists -- the Taliban and Hamas this morning -- in criticizing the President for receiving the Nobel Peace Prize."

Like most Americans, the DNC can't think of one achievement that the president has accomplished, so they resort to their predictable response and standard playbook of demonizing anyone who disagrees with them...

GO GATORS BEAT lsu!!

SIT TEBOW...
