What's hatching on Hatch's head?
So what's the deal with the splotch on Orrin Hatch's forehead?

Comedy Central's Indecision 2008 blog snapped a photo of the Utah Republican senator at Boston's Logan Airport (delivering a CD to Teddy Kennedy, perhaps?) and noticed his new facial deformity.
Is he returning home from a Mikhail Gorbachev look-a-like contest (which he lost to Larry Craig)? Is he trying to introduce bindis to the Mormon faith? Did he step on a rake deftly planted by Senate prankster Russ Feingold (D-WI)? Or is it none of the above?
Alas, the real explanation is more prosaic. The Tribune's D.C. intern Lindsay Hough reported Sunday that Hatch took a tumble while walking last week. Even so, he appeared on CNBC Tuesday to talk about union-busting legislation.
