As Ron pointed out earlier today, the Boston Herald took Kerry’s comments out of [...]

David Brooks continues to write a lot of nonsense, especially in his comments on the Democratic Party which have little relation to reality, but at least understands some of the problems with the Republican Party: Yesterday the DeLay Era ended. DeLay fell victim to his willingness to push right up against the campaign finance laws [...]

The rightwing blogosphere is attempting to make a big deal about the documentary Inside the Bubble, a behind-the-scenes look at the Kerry campaign.
