The timing, of course, is choreographed to coincide with the Conservative party's endorsement of Faso at the pre-convention convention today. Bill Weld, meanwhile, is affecting an attitude of complete disintest about Faso's big day.

The Associated Press tracks the Democrats' response to Pirro spokeswoman Andrea Tantaros's undergrad musings, but omits her (rocking) Wawa-smokes defense.
