California Supreme Court Legalizes Gay Marriage

Hot Air
by Allahpundit
An election-year bombshell, just across the wires. Rove, you magnificent bastard. Stand by for updates.
Update: Here’s the opinion. How does 172 pages sound?
Update: The AP story is thin on specifics since it’ll take awhile to digest the holding. Read this useful bullet-point background from the Journal to get up to speed [...]

Charges of racist and demonstrations by groups such as the anti-semitic Nation of Islam (Obama’s friends) continue to harass local Marietta, Georgia bar owner Mike Norman over his Curious George Obama t-shirts.

Obama “Curious George” T-Shirts - For Sale

The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
By Christian Boone

Pam Lindley of Marietta holds up the T-shirt in question as about a dozen people protested outside Mulligan’s bar in Marietta Tuesday. They object to the establishment selling a Curious George t-shirt that says ‘Obama in ‘08.’ The bar has caused controversy in the past with its billboard messages.
About a dozen [...]

Voters: Racism Is Not the Problem

National Journal Magazine
by Stuart Taylor Jr.
Wright aside, if Obama’s race were a net liability with voters, he would have had no chance of winning the nomination.
Is Barack Obama–now closer than ever to winning the Democratic nomination–nonetheless at a political disadvantage because of white racism, or “racial fears,” or “race-baiting,” or racial “double standards,” as some [...]

The Widening Gap

By Andrew Kohut
Generation that is
By 1984 baby boomers were not so young and their ideas were not so different. And until very recently, a political generation gap between younger and older voters was not so great.

The Clinton Divorce

Op-Ed
No, we don’t mean Bill and Hillary. We mean the separation now under way between the Clintons and the Democratic Party. Like all divorces after lengthy unions, this one is painful and has had its moments of reconciliation, but after Tuesday a split looks inevitable. The long co-dependency is over.
Truth be told, this was always [...]

Is McCain Trying to Lose Michigan?

RealClearPolitics
By Susan Demas
Say you’re running for president and dropping by the most economically ravaged state in the nation.
Your Democratic rivals are too busy butchering one another to campaign here, much less notice 7.2 percent unemployment, record foreclosures and skyrocketing demand at local food banks.
So naturally, you’d give a speech on child pornography and human trafficking [...]

Can Democrats Learn To Talk About Race?

Salon
by Joan Walsh
The new Democratic coalition is younger.
The debate between Donna Brazile and Paul Begala I highlighted Tuesday night was also illuminating, and alarming. I like and admire Donna Brazile. We used to get fan mail from her, here at Salon, when we were virtually alone trying to strengthen the Democrats’ spines during the Florida [...]
