The Daily Zeitgeist: And The Base Keeps Running... Running

Drudge: Newt says "HILLARY A 'NASTY WOMAN'

Buzz Story One: On the eve of CPAC, National Review urges conservatives to take a fresh look at Sen. John McCain. Writes Ramesh Ponnuru: :McCain’s apostasies from conservatism, unlike Giuliani’s, are well known. The mayor’s polls form a ceiling. McCain’s could be a floor, if conservatives are willing to reconsider their view of him. If they do, then the current Giuliani moment will be succeeded by a McCain moment. I think conservatives will give him a second look — as they should." (no link yet)

Buzz Story Two: Obama "on Friday will call for tougher Iran sanctions, more bilateral diplomacy and declare he is for leaving all military options on the table" (Chicago Sun-Times).

Memeorandum: Breaking: Video: McCain tells Letterman he's in

The Note:'s Insight of the Morning: ."Also, Note readers who are men and women of the world will ask themselves which is more likely: that Ben Smith took time out from his family, blogging, and covering events to meticulously gather all this judicial research on his own, or someone (a/k/a: "the Romney or McCain campaign") delivered all this to him in a nice, tight little package?"

Thought of the day:Letterman's Paul Schieffer, on McCain: "He's doing the formal announcement on Leno" ("Late Show").
