The notion that Barack Obama is the second coming of George McGovern is taking hold across the ideological spectrum.  At TNR, John B. Judis writes that Obama’s vote in Pennsylvania took on the shape of a McGovernite coalition led by college students and minorities: Its ideology is very liberal. Whereas in the first primaries and caucuses, Obama benefited from being seen as middle-of-the-road or even conservative, he is now receiving

According to the arrest report, Metro Police arrived at a gas station at First and Jefferson streets in Louisville and immediately smelled marijuana coming from Joshua L.
