I’ve been behind on political blogging the past few days–you’ll have to forgive me for that.
What’s with Dean whining about being attacked by other Dem candidates? For goodness sakes, it’s politics after all! This is par for the course. Dean is sounding more and more like a sissy.
As for the Dean-McAullife feud–I think this is more of a fight for the control of the party. McAuliffe was the Clinton’s man, and he “represents” them, while Dean seems to be more of a representative of the further left-flank of the party. It’s a fight for control of the party I guess. But again, Dean shouldn’t be complaining that he’s being attacked.
Speaking of the Clintons, Clark is the first one to use Bill in an ad. Reinforces the idea that Clark is the Clintons’ candidate.
Back to Dean, what’s with his whole thing now about raising the Minimum Wage? It doesn’t make much economic sense.
On Economics, Donald Luskin gets a 2 for 1 — nailing both Paul Krugman and Brandeis prof Robert Reich. Well done!
Regarding AG Ashcroft excusing himself from the CIA leak investigation…I’m dissapointed that the story returned. I thought the whole Plame-Wilson thingy was moot. Darn.
And what about that LA Times story about weapons smuggling. (Cough Syria cough)
