The difference between Republicans who still support Bush and the ones who no longer do is that the ones who still support Bush still imagine that they are in on the con.
idiots.

How have I managed to, until now, be utterly unaware that we had a senator named Crapo.

Like Yglesias, I miss the good old days when it was all social security all the time. It's a largely unacknowledged success of the liberal blogosphere, but I'm fairly convinced that collectively we killed that sucker.
I also miss the Washington Post editorials telling us that the universe was going to implode if we didn't gut social security NOW.

What they want:
No one can explain why Markos should be treated differently than the National Review Online, slate.com, Fox News, Air America, etc... but they really really want to nonetheless. Idiots, as are plenty of commenters at kos who seem to think the issue is that since Kos makes money from his site he needs to be regulated by the FEC.

Probably not, but Senator Harkin gives it a try anyway:

Uh, the smart thing to do is, you know, do the opposite?

Sam Rosenfeld discusses the McCain issue. One thing which has been left out of the conversation is the internet caucus. A little internet history is in order. Obviously the Free Republic is no longer the primary nexus of online Republicans, but it still has its place. Back before the 2000 election Freeperville's Leader, Jim Robinson, was a hardcore McCainiac. There was a big spat and all the Bushies, including Lucianne and Matt Drudge, fled to Lucianne Goldberg's new place. At the time Lucianne tried to pass it off as a moderates vs. the extremists spat, though Ldotters these days are more batshit crazy and extreme than Freepers, as hard as that is to believe.
Then, of course, Bush won the primaries and Robinson had to retool the place back into Bush worship central. Another round of purging and fleeing, yada yada. The Freepi themselves hate McCain generally, though I'm not sure where Robinson is on the issue. In any case, as I said, freeperville is not the force it once was, with conservative blogs becoming more relevant and influential. Still, one important point remains. As David J. reminded me in comments, Matt Drudge cannot stand McCain. That's a big hurdle of McCain to get over. One wonders if he's even aware. Trivia: Michelle Malkin's onetime freeper handle was Little LuLu.

Hard to believe, but apparently true.

If I were McCain I'd be thrilled about this:
Since Klein discredited himself so badly with his Clinton hack job that even conservatives who will believe literally anything about Clinton distanced themselves from him, this book will serve McCain well. If there's anything that's actually seedy and true in the book it'll be lost in the bullshit and McCain will be inoculated.

Having first decided that Congress is irrelevant, Specter now concludes that the Supreme Court is too.
Nice endorsement there, Philadelphia Inquirer.

Apparently the market has spoken:
Oh, and Limbaugh got canned in Baltimore too.
