The Republicans' big night

See what you missed: I debated Ruth Ann Dailey today about the general election on PG+. I hope you will not take pleasure in the fact that Jack Kelly is ill. He has had a gall bladder problem. I have always said he has a lot of gall - and it turns out...

Pulling a Palin

My column this morning has been a roller-coaster ride. By my standards, the reaction was huge (by my colleague Tony Norman's standards it was probably just another day at the office. Am I jealous? Yes). I get alternating messages via e-mail or phone...

Portrait of Palin

Dick Cheney in lipstick

The portrait that emerged of Sarah Palin in the front-page story in Sunday's New York Times was a real eye-opener. After becoming governor, she "surrounded herself with people she has known since grade school and members of her church."...

Hurrah for liberals

The letters page of The New York Times today has a half dozen letters praising Bob Herbert, whose Sept. 9 column recounted the many accomplishments of liberals and took aim at the conservative use of the word as a political slur. I join Bob Herbert in...

The McWizard of Oz

John McCain, Yesterday's Man for Tomorrow's Problems [TM], made a nice speech on the last night of the Republican National Convention. He was one the few speakers at the convention to say something nice about Barack Obama and sound genuinely sincere...
