Today's Must-Read (s)

Dennis G. at Balloon Juice on some familiar cons and their current activities.

I'd really like to think that America could not elect someone who looks like Donald Trump - that hair alone should disqualify him, but I know better.

I started to write a post over the weekend about Krugman's "Civility" column, but everyone else in the world linked to it, and I didn't have anything else to add. My own recent surprise encounter with incivility rendered the topic a little too raw for me.

Also, too.

Quote of the Day: From commenter "SteveT" to this post at WM:

Progressives need to keep repeating: If you find a "middle ground" between 'D' and 'R' then you end up in 'N', with the national engine revving but the car not moving.
