Reuters/C-Span Texas Poll Has Obama In The Lead

This just in...Reuters/C-Span Texas Poll: Obama 48%, Clinton 42%. Looks to be about tied in Ohio. But momentum in Ohio may swing toward Obama as local politicians feel pressure to go with the flow.

FROM LA Weekly SEVEN PAGE Website Post on Density Problems: "In every city in this country, the zone on the land establishes the value of the land. In Los Angeles, that's not true.

"The value of the land is not based on what the zone says ... It's based on what [the] developer believes he can change the zone to.

"This is disastrous for the city. Disatorous. Zoning has to mean something in this city."

Goldberg probably wishes she hadn't said that, not necessarily because she got reprimanded by L.A.'s famously vindictive Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa, but because Los Angeles County Supervisor Zev Yaroslavksy has repeated her words in public, over and over.
