Remains of the Year, Politics Edition


1. “Can candidates in 2008 truly rely on blogs to increase their portion of votes — or have most weblogs evolved into partisan echo chambers?”

2. Are political moderates tuning out, or something else? I believe intimidation and a dislike of others’ tactics are the culprits.

3. Charlie Wilson on Charlie Wilson and the movie about Charlie Wilson

4. The Rothenberg Political Report’s best and worst of politics, 2007

5. Speaking of women, they’re training up across the country and in June, in Ohio – get your applications ready ladies – but start here by trying to become a pundit

6. National Conference on State Legislatures Top 10 Issues forecast for 2008 – think it applies to Ohio?

7. Gov. Strickland and the GOP-led statehouse play nice? Eh. They’re circling, big time.

8. Play the next-president futures market

9. Project Vote Smart -a fantastic resource

10. “Political campaign spending on advertising media and marketing services is expected to soar 43 percent to an all-time high of $4.5 billion in the 2008 election cycle…” (fourth item down)

11. Lawyers lead the pack in how much they give to political candidates. Lots of charts and data.
