		<description><![CDATA[Congratulations to the United States. On this day, we gather because we have chosen hope over fear, unity of purpose over conflict and discord. On this day, we come to proclaim an end to the petty grievances and false promises, the recriminations and worn out dogmas, that for far too long have strangled our politics. [...]]]></description>

Despite the fact that he risks jinxing the election by coming right out and talking about an Obama landslide, David Kurtz over at TPM has an interesting post questioning the meaning of a [...]]]></description>

Barack Obama with terrorism, questioning his patriotism and portraying Mr. Obama as &#8220;not one of us,&#8221; I accuse you of deliberately feeding the most unhinged elements of [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I really dig this first part from Thomas Frank&#8216;s recent piece in the WSJ: OK, let me get this straight: The central axiom of conservative Republicanism is that government is inherently corrupt and can&#8217;t do anything right. Over many years of ascendancy, conservative Republicans have filled government agencies with conservative Republicans and proceeded to enact [...]]]></description>

We have before us a great example of bi-partisan agreement in congress. I&#8217;m hoping that congress doesn&#8217;t just put a few more bells on the Paulson plan and pass that [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Unusual for me to have 3 posts in as many days&#8230; But the Palin thing just keeps getting better. Here&#8217;s an article with a letter from someone from Palin&#8217;s home town of Wasilla about her actual record. Now this is just a letter to the editor and you can&#8217;t tell if it&#8217;s true or not. [...]]]></description>

I just got forwarded this video of John McCain&#8217;s former campaign chief Mike Murphy and former Reagan speechwriter Peggy Noonan talking with Chuck Todd about Sarah Palin when they thought they were off camera. Mike Murphy: &#8230; And it&#8217;s NOT gonna work. Peggy Noonan: It&#8217;s Over. And then a little bit later: [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[So &#8211; I don&#8217;t have a problem with the idea that a candidate&#8217;s family should be off limits. You shouldn&#8217;t attack a candidate for a problem that someone in their family has. Jimmy Carter&#8217;s alchoholic brother comes to mind. And I&#8217;m not saying that the fact that Sarah Palin&#8217;s 17 year old daughter is pregnant [...]]]></description>

MoveOn.org sent out an e-mail asking people to tell Obama to pledge to investigate the criminal actions of the Bush administration should he get elected. This gave me a nice opportunity to vent a bit about it: Senator Obama - I was [...]]]></description>
