4 Years Later, Race Is Still Issue for Some Voters →

Sobering

“Research suggests President Obama’s mixed-race heritage can still be a powerful factor in economically distressed regions with high proportions of white working-class residents.”

Frank Rich is doing some good work at NY Mag. Glad he's getting a new readership. →

SUGAR DADDIES : The old, white rich men who are buying this election. 

“Romney, a one-percenter incarnate, is their natural candidate.”

“Obama arouses these kind of violent emotions less because of his actual record than because of who he is (emphatically not one of them) and what he says.”

Frank Rich: The GOP's woman problem is that it has a serious problem with women →

“The notion that Romney will somehow be more “moderate” on women’s issues than his opponents or party is not credible. The fact that he and his wife long ago supported Planned Parenthood in Massachusetts is no more a predictor of his agenda in the White House than the Bush family’s links to Planned Parenthood were of either Bush presidency. On policy, Romney and Santorum are on exactly the same page.”

“ ALEC is the same group behind laws that harm workers, health, and safety, and behind the “Voter ID” law that makes it harder for low-income people, communities of color, the disabled and elderly, and others to vote. Now we know ALEC wrote the law that might let Trayvon Martin’s killer walk free.  How much longer will the large corporations behind ALEC harm the communities in which they do business by funding the group’s reckless agenda?”

This is the first day we have Dodie Bellamy’s book the buddhist on sale at Emily Books. To celebrate, I’m posting a tiny part of the book. Though I don’t share Dodie’s opinion on Freedom, this passage made me laugh out loud and feel like I understood her and loved her spirit. This is the…
