Dems 2008: If Obama is McGovern, why not say so? [Karl]

Bob “The Prince of Darkness” Novak reports: Strategists for Sen. Hillary Clinton’s presidential campaign believe it is imperative to identify her high-flying opponent, Sen. Barack Obama, with the “McGovern wing” of the Democratic Party — but they want to keep their candidate’s fingerprints off the attack. Presumably, leaking it to Novak would be considered counter-productive to that sort of secrecy. Now that her cover is blown, perhaps Clinton ought to

Picture This [Dan Collins]

Everybody’s noticed the swelling on the left side of McCain’s face.  So, my question is . . . do the political cartoonists start drawing him with a lopsided head, or is it just too un-PC, even to do to a Rethug?

Around the world, a second instant sub-genre has sprung up in which commentators speculate how long it

Dems 2008: Historians for Hillary [Karl]

Sean Wilentz and Julian E. Zelizer, who teach US political history at Princeton University, do not actually endorse Sen. Hillary Clinton’s presidential bid in their Sunday WaPo op-ed, “A Rotten Way to Pick a President.”  But their complaints about “our badly flawed system” for picking presidential candidates sound as though Clinton could have been giving them dictation. Their criticisms?  Caucuses can be highly undemocratic.  Michigan and Florida may be disenfranchised.
