Americans For Prosperity (read "the Koch brothers") hosted a forum for GOP '12 candidates. It went about as well as you'd expect. Tim Pawlenty apologized for having -- in a moment of sanity -- accepted that climate change is real. And Mittens seems to have a real problem with thinking on his feet.

Finally, the death toll from storms in the south rise to 350.
