Hanley

Apparently Marlins manager Freddi Sanchez benched shortstop Hanley Ramirez, the best player in his organization by far, for failing to run hard enough after a ground ball that he booted into the outfield. The Mets announcers in the game yesterday were going on and on about how good a move that was by Sanchez, and moreover how bad it was that Hanley responded by attacking his manager (saying he "didn't know what it was like" to be a big-league baseball player). I would have no serious disagreement with them, save maybe in enthusiasm level, except for one thing.

Most Votes, Most Seats

That's the meme that the Conservatives are pushing over in Britain right now: we won the most votes and the most seats, and therefore how dare the Liberal Democrats form an agreement with Labour! But do they have the most votes? Or the most seats? Well, that depends very much on how you draw the party lines.
