Ah, what a blissfully quiet week we’ve had here at the SNS. Had some nice steady traffic – visitors from 45 of 50 states this week. Shockingly – Wyoming fails to check in – we’re going to have to send one of our correspondents into the range to see if Wyoming has been swallowed into the Earth. The rest of the 50 represented very well, with particularly strong showings from New York, Texas, California, Ohio, and Florida.

What was their favorite part of the SNS? Well we can’t tell you every post, but we do know that a good number of our readers found the Dream Team to be an entertaining viewing experience. Though that number was eclipsed by the number of readers who received our breaking news alert on Ohio Democrat A.G. Marc Dann’s resignation, or were amused by the fact that an official State of Ohio pda (crackberry) turned up in somebody’s house who has no connection to anybody in state government it appears.

Finally, we had a sleeper this week with an immensely popular post about the secret grand jury being convened in New York to look into some political dirty tricks – since others have written about this, does that mean it’s no longer secret? Or did this secret somehow leak out of the AGs office in Albany?

Lastly, we’d like to welcome our most intriguing visitor of the week: the Democratic Leadership Council – you know, Harold Ford, Jr’s group. Nice to know the SNS continues to be a source of news for Republican activists and national Democrat organizations alike. Happy to be of service, though it is a strange combination.

So – keep the tips and insights coming. If we’re missing something – be it on another blog, a video, something funny you just have to share – let us know at tips@statenewsshot.com – and we’ll post it up for the rest of the class to see

Regardless of your political color – have a safe Memorial Day.
