Good news: Jackson Browne won his lawsuit against John McCain! The Ohio GOP used "Running On Empty" in a 2008 campaign ad, and so Browne sued them all. And then McCain countersued, weirdly.

Well it turns out that was all just election talk. The GOP settled for an undisclosed sum of money (not that Jackson Browne cares about the money!) and Senator McCain apologized, profusely.

This might bode well for Don Henley's lawsuit against failed Senate Candidate Charles DeVore! (Not making that up! Republicans: steal music from less litigious aging boomer MOR musicians!)
