Tuesday Morning Open Thread

Good morning.

Well, summer is over. Not officially. But, it always feels like that way on the day after Labor Day.

D.C. will bustling again, although Congress doesn't return til next week. And, we're in the final stretch of the 2010 campaigns.

After the trip to Wisconsin yesterday, The President doesn't have any big public events on his schedule today. He is meeting separately with Secretary Clinton and Secretary Gates. (Might be a good time to talk to Gates about putting some muscle behind getting the Defense Authorization bill passed in September. That's our best hope for insuring that the compromise DADT language becomes law this year, as promised.) Obama is also meeting with Anders Fogh Rasmussen, who is the Secretary General of NATO.

Obama is heading to Cleveland tomorrow to deliver another speech on the economy.

What else?
