Election 2008: Casual Denunciation Friday [Karl]
John McCain’s presidential campaign has issued a statement regarding the controversial endorsement McCain received on Thursday: “Yesterday, Pastor John Hagee endorsed my candidacy for president in San Antonio, Texas. However, in no way did I intend for his endorsement to suggest that I in turn agree with all of Pastor Hagee’s views, which I obviously do not. I am hopeful that Catholics, Protestants and all people of faith who share my vision

The Excitable, Gullible Choice for Blog Readers: Sullivan [Karl]
Excitable Andy is in full swoon over Barack Obama defending gay rights from a Christian perspective to a largely black crowd in Beaumont, Texas: It’s a break through.

The Canadian kerfuffle over Sen. Barack Obama’s recent turn toward protectionism just got a little jucier: On Wednesday, CTV reported that a senior member of camp Obama had called the Canadian embassy, saying that Obama’s talk about opting out of NAFTA was just campaign rhetoric not to be taken seriously. The Obama campaign flatly denied the report. A spokesman for the Canadian Embassy denied the story, but was a bit equivocal as
Election 2008: Your must-read on the white male swing vote [Karl]
Having written on working-class white men as a swing vote, with related posts on white support for Hillary Clinton and white male support for Barack Obama, I highly recommend a piece by David Paul Kuhn at the Huffington Post, “White Men Seen All Wrong.” The lede: Washington analysts are beginning to notice a curious fact of the Democratic race. In a primary contest between the first black or female nominee,
