- Liberal Bloggers Earn Big Bucks from Democratic Candidates
  Posted by Jeff from New York Times
  Summary of liberal bloggers taking a lot of money to sound resoundlingly positive commentary on their employers. Pretty amazing to see how much the campaigns are willing to pay. In some cases more than $4,000 a month for part time blogging.

- Democrats Split on How Far to Go With Ethics Law
  Posted by Jeff from New York Times
  This is a terrible sign. The Democrats have to end earmarks - they have to go much farther or they are just playing the Republican corruption game-lite.

- Democrats' green agenda gets big boost
  Posted by Jeff from Seattle Times
  Pombo was swept from office Tuesday in an election that put Democrats in control of Congress and left environmentalists optimistic they'll see more money for parks, progress on Puget Sound cleanup, and creation of a new wilderness area in Snohomish County.

Also:
"Thomas Frank wrote a best-selling book four years ago (What’s the Matter with Kansas?), which examined this process in his home state, and his conclusions about the use of coded appeals to religion to induce voters to ignore their own economic interests have become conventional wisdom in ruling class political and media circles.

"While Frank’s book had certain insights into American culture and politics, he ignored the most fundamental factor enabling the Republican appeals to prejudice and backwardness to produce electoral successes—the drastic shift by the Democratic Party to the right and its abandonment of any policies to alleviate economic inequality or improve living conditions for working people.
—Patrick Martin, "US media, Clinton assail Obama for ‘bitter’ truth, World Socialist Web Site, 14 April 2008.
