Let’s get back to President Obama’s ‘Secretary of Explaining Stuff.’ Romney and Ryan have repeatedly accused the President of robbing Medicare of $716 billion. Here’s how President Clinton framed the response at the DNC convention in Charlotte. Here’s what really happened. There were no cuts to benefits at all. None. What the president did was …
It’s ten minutes long but really worth it for the vitriol at the end. All well and good, but does he really sign off with Murrow’s iconic “Good night, and good luck.” all the time? Really?

Ian has this article, on concerns about Clinton’s donations from big arms manufacturers — and, in particular, the money she’ taken from Textron: Last October, in an examination of campaign contributions in 2007 from employees of major defense industry contractors, Thomas B. Edsall wrote on the Huffington Post that “Senator Clinton took $52,600, more than …
David Sirota has a dead-on deconstruction of the awkward class dynamic that’s evolved on the Democratic side of the presidential race: And so, as Marable says, Obama’s pitch includes “no mention of the class struggle or class conflict.” It is “hope” instead of an economic case, bromide instead of critique.

I know that this doesn’t mean anything, but we don’t have much to go on in RI, and I think it’s notable in that the numbers are so damn close to what most people would probably expect. Clinton’s up over Obama by slightly more than I’d have guessed, but that’s in line with the one …

Second poll in a week showing Clinton losing her Iowa lead, seemingly for the right reasons — with emphasis on militancy towards Iran. Obama, an Illinois senator, leads for the first time in the Register’s poll as the choice of 28 percent of likely caucusgoers, up from 22 percent in October. Clinton, a New …
I posted last week about the possibility of candidates teaming up to beat Clinton in Iowa. So this statement by Edwards (now a few weeks old) caught my eye today: “The differences between Sen. Clinton (D-N.Y.) and myself are much more dramatic than the differences between Sen. Obama and myself,” Edwards told reporters after receiving …
