The Old Man And His Temper (Mark Nickolas' Blog)If you haven't read today's front-page Washington Post in-depth story on John McCain's (R) scary temper and his numerous blow-ups, you should.

Grassroot Politics (brazoscowgirl's Blog)Grassroots politics is what got Bush 43 elected. You may or may not know what it is but believe me without grassroots no candidate can make it far.

Harold Ford, Jr. Smear, Redux? (Mark Nickolas' Blog)A colleague of mine wondered in an e-mail whether the Britney/Paris smear ad against Barack Obama (D) was an effort to try to replicate the Republican ad against Harold Ford, Jr. accompanied by a white woman?
