For a nice distraction from all this politics stuff, The Hill offers its annual list of the 50 most beautiful people on Capitol Hill.

But we failed to spot anyone from the New York City delegation.

Sigh.

No, no action by New York's junior Senator is too trivial for The Politicker:

"Former Democratic presidential candidate Sen. John Kerry of Massachusetts said Tuesday that 'Karl Rove ought to be fired.'

"With Kerry on Capitol Hill was Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton, D-New York, also a possible 2008 presidential contender, who indicated her agreement with Kerry's view.

'"I'm nodding,' she told reporters."

Also, ex-Republican Marshall Wittman has a smart take on why you shouldn't hold your breath for Rove's resignation.
