Who does Paulson think he is? Putin?
How did we get from a bailout to free up credit to owning a piece of nine of the major banks (even those who didn't take on bad debt like Wells Fargo): The chief executives of the nine largest banks......posted by Michele McGinty @Thursday October 16, 2008 Permalink

What if McCain wins after all?
Drudge is teasing big to a Gallup poll of likely voters showing McCain only down by two, which is within the margin of error. I think that's about as credible at the NYT/CBS poll showing Obama up by 14, but......posted by Rod Dreher @Thursday October 16, 2008 Permalink Email This Add to:

Obama, McCain and the kids
Ramesh Ponnuru, seeing parents in his neighborhood encouraging their kids to be Obamatons, rightly says he doesn't get people who delight in politicizing their children. Completely agree. For some reason, though, my two boys -- ages nine and four --......posted by Rod Dreher @Thursday October 16, 2008 Permalink Email This Add to:

Sen. Obama, FOX News, and the media
In an article that will appear in the Oct. 19, 2008 edition of the New York Times Magazine, reporter Matt Bai quotes Barack Obama making a startling assertion: "I am convinced that if there were no FOX News, I might......posted by Dr. Richard Land @Thursday October 16, 2008 Permalink Email This Add to:

Conservatives, here's why Obama won
I'm getting lots of heat from conservative readers who think McCain clearly won last night's debate, because he hit Obama hard on the stuff conservatives care about. The polls show that most people scored it for Obama. John Podhoretz explains......posted by Rod Dreher @Thursday October 16, 2008 Permalink Email This Add to:

Joe the Plumber has become the new media darling :-)
Evidently, he made the rounds this morning on the news shows and even held a press conference. Good! He's an excellent spokesman for the average American who is sick of this election and the direction this country has been heading.......posted by Michele McGinty @Thursday October 16, 2008 Permalink Email This Add to:

Obama and McCain as Panderers-in-Chief
The star of last night's debate was clearly Joe Wurzelbacher, otherwise known as Joe the Plumber. The winner is up for debate. But Americans were certainly the losers as both candidates competed not for the role of Commander-in-Chief, but for......posted by Brad Hirschfield @Thursday October 16, 2008 Permalink Email This Add to:

"I'm gonna hate him the minute I vote for him. He's gonna be a bad president."
But he's going to vote for Obama anyway because he doesn't want to vote for another Republican. Amazing! He knows that Obama will be a terrible president, but he's voting for him anyway. I'm in agreement with Geraghty, it's looking......posted by Michele McGinty @Thursday October 16, 2008 Permalink Email This Add to:

Final McCain-Obama debate
I'm going to open a thread for readers who are watching the McCain-Obama debate. I'm here at the office tonight watching the debate and writing tomorrow's editorial about it, so I can't liveblog.

Why conservatives need elites
Man, Ross is on fire today, getting all up in the face of conservatives who disparage elites and elite opinion. Here's the thing: The Republican Party will be a populist party going forward, or it won't be a party at......posted by Rod Dreher @Wednesday October 15, 2008 Permalink Email This Add to:
