Dukakis on the Election: Obama Knows How to Win, 'McCain Has Nothing'
When John McCain’s campaign made it clear over the weekend that their stretch-run strategy would lean heavily on raising questions about Barack Obama’s personal history and past “associations,” Obama’s communications director provided a simple, almost indifferent reaction to the Washington Post: “This isn’t 1988.”
Michael Dukakis, the Democratic presidential nominee whose campaign was eviscerated that year by tactics ripped from the same playbook from which Mr. McCain now seems intent on bor

"Larry Platt for Congress." Not
Last fall, I was called to serve. I was recruited to run for congress in Pennsylvania's prized sixth district, the suburbs of Philly. I accepted. I met Bill Clinton. I talked strategy with Steny Hoyer. I hitched myself to a grizzled, street-fighting campaign manager, asked all my friends for money, and came clean on the skeletons in my closet. And then I decided I couldn't go through with it. Here's why

OBAMA’S STEADINESS
TIME’s Joe Klein, though not a conservative, is someone who (1) respects McCain and (2) like many of us has watched in amazement the transformation McCain has undergone from 8 years ago. Here Klein contrasts Obama’s level headedness in a crisis with McCain’s, well, insanity.
“Part of Obama’s steadiness is born of necessity: An angry, or flashy, black man isn’t going to be elected President. But I’ve also gotten the sense, in the times I’ve interviewed and c

Trying to Figure Out Blogger Economics and, Once Again, Failing
Beside speculating on why Bill Clinton isn't showing his full support for Barack Obama — one theory says it's because the Democratic nominee wouldn't guarantee Hillary a Supreme Court seat — another favorite game of the MSM is figuring out how much money those pesky bloggers make. Are they raking in the cash like a lobbyist without a soul, or are they in the poorhouse and typing away on an ancient Brother typewriter? To the fuzzy math!
