LAPTOPS IN THE CLASSROOM: And spying on students with Synchroneyes!
HAS OBAMA BEEN adequately vetted for the general election? Well, if the worst the Clintons can find is a kindergarten essay and a rather weak claim of Bidenization, I’d say yes . . . .
UPDATE: Reader Sean McNeill emails: “I will argue, Glenn, that he has been vetted from the left but not the right. . . . No one knows what will happen when he is targeted from the right, or even the center.”

HERE’S A ROUNDUP ON today’s Washington, Wisconsin, and Hawaii primaries.
CASTRO RESIGNS: Fausta has a roundup. Let’s transition to a free, democratic Cuba soon — I’d like to add it to my dive-destination list. . . .
JANUARY WAS wicked cold.
HILLARY CLINTON: Lifelong hunter!
EXTREME MORTMAN: “What’s a tangible improvement for Iraq that John McCain might want to trumpet during the campaign? It’s got nothing to do with troop levels or timetables — but everything to do with Iraq’s economy. McCain should work on ways to improve Iraq’s stock market.”
