"Al Roker sees everything coming, not just storm clouds. When we caught up with him at the Quills Literary Awards last night, we asked him what he thought of J.K. Rowling's revelation that Harry Potter character Albus Dumbledore was gay. 'I was not surprised because I always got the sense there was actually something between him and Hagrid,' said Roker, who is a fan of the books."

"Sen. Barack Obama (D-Ill.) takes a sharp shot at Sen. Hillary Clinton (D-N.Y.) in a colorful, oversized postcard being sent to Iowa voters on Tuesday. His message of being a fresh, inspiring change has left him lagging in the polls as Clinton hammers home her experience. So Obama's word is now 'judgment' — and he says his is better than hers on Iraq and Iran." (Politico)

"ABC picks up the back nine episodes for this season of Pushing Daisies, bringing their order to a full 22 hours of beautifully shot, expensively produced whimsy. You know, unless the writers fulfill the networks' secret wish to wipe out the rest of the TV season." (Defamer via THR)

The Douchebag Award Goes To: "Rep. Tom Tancredo (R-Colo.), who runs his long-shot presidential campaign on a platform of a tough immigration policy, alerted federal officials Tuesday to an event that he said would be attended by 'several illegal aliens.'" (TheHill)
