Argus Leader Media - Paul Greenberg:
Isn't it time we had a leader that wasn't bound to a canon of ideas?
"The attitude of today's Pavlovian Conservatives toward Sen. McCain is
reminiscent of the disdain that admirers of the late great Robert A. Taft, icon
of American conservatism in his time, had for Dwight Eisenhower and his great
failing: He was not only too popular (everybody liked Ike), but he ideologically
was undependable, maybe even just plain un-ideological, hard as that is for a
certain species of political junkie to imagine - about anyone."

Talking Points Memo: by Joshua Micah Marshall WTF?:
Talking Points Memo: by Joshua Micah Marshall WTF?:
In statistics there is the idea of deminished returns. Forgive me if I don't get this completely right. The idea is that an error margin in a poll is decided by a formula. Under this formula after you reach a certain number - you get no closer to a zero margin of error. A zero margin of error would be no error between the population polled and the collective population. That number is about 1,600 people The reason I bring this up, is that voting isn't about winners and losers as much as it is every vote being counted. If it were only about winners and losers we could count 1,600 votes and call the election done.
"As you know, here at TPM we've been really curious what happened up in the
Republican caucus in Washington state. For probably the first time in all the
primaries and elections I've ever watched, the folks running the election
decided to stop counting the votes with 13% of the votes uncounted. And this
wasn't a 70-30 blow out, but a tight race where the two top vote getters were
separated by less than 2% of the vote. Then this morning, state party chair Luke
Esser decided to declare McCain the winner."

The future of news? This is a great story, and a good read.
"Mr. Conroy, whose job title is “off-air reporter,” (because he does not
normally appear on television) is one of many young journalists hired by the
networks to follow the candidates across the country, filing video and blog
posts as they go. Originally hired to cut expenses — their cost is a fraction of
a full television crew’s — these reporters, also called “embeds,” have produced
a staggering amount of content, especially video. And in this election cycle,
for the first time, they are able to edit and transmit video on the fly"
