  • Failure to Admit Blagojevich Appointee to Senate Big Mistake

    Failure to Admit Illinois Governor Blagojevich's Appointee, the eminently qualified and well reputed Roland Burris, to the United States Senate will prove to be a supremely Big Mistake made by the Democratic Senate Leadership and yes, Barack Obama. News today is that the U.S. Senate will seat 59 Democratic Senators, including their Candidate ...

  • A nomination, not an election

    Greenfield and Hitchens are correct: the Iowa caucuses, especially the Democratic version, are undemocratic. My question is the one they skipped altogether: should they be democratic in the first place. Keep in mind that this is not an election for a political office -- it's the method by which a state party chooses its delegates to a national ...
