Extra attention to a few Centrist blogs.
Tim F. congratulates Glenn Greenwald who has joined Salon. Some Greenwald’s readers don’t seem to be happy too happy about it. Tim quotes Glenn who responded to some of the complaints…
I’m with Glenn and Tim on this one (although, unlike Tim, I wouldn’t mind actually earning some money…). If certain bloggers are able to actually earn a living off of blogging, I’d say ‘well done’. Sadly, I’m one of those poor, silly addicts who can’t help but to blog. For those of you who don’t blog: it’s an addiction. It truly is.
Dick Polman on Joe Biden. Polman interprets Biden’s words like I do: “I think this is what Biden was intending to say: Obama has charisma and a good personal story – assets which give him a serious shot at becoming the first black president.” But… he should have been more careful. Bides more “adept in his natural habitat, the U.S. Senate”?
Hilzoy spends a looong post on Obama. Quite some links in it etc.: a must read for those who want to find out more about Obama.
Amba links to a short, but thought provoking column by Barry Casselman in The Washington Times called The West in a Trance.
The Gun Toting Liberal’s Alexander Paul Melonas seems to favor Edwards.
