Reforming the Democratic Party
I came into Election Day more confident than I had been than I had been at most points in the campaign. Polls were showing Kerry leads in Florida and Ohio. I'm not going to try to figure out what went...

Concert Review: R.E.M. at Madison Square Garden, NYC
This would be R.E.M.'s first show after the election. I can't even imagine how the band, as well as any other musician involved in the Vote For Change Tour, were feeling, two days after the election. So I wasn't expecting...

1 - Jason Koulouras
Eric, this compilation is a great resource site - thanks!
2 - Eric Olsen
thanks Jason! It's a good way to follow along in chronological order, and with it all in one place you can spot trends and relationships between stories and themes you might not have otherwise noticed
3 - Mike Kole

Who are we to believe on the conditions in Iraq? A man who is risking his life every minute of the day who lives there (Allawi) and is the Prime Minister, or a man running for president that would benefit by worsening conditions(JFK)?
10 - Eric Olsen
everyone has an angle, including Allawi, but that is not an unresonable question

This is, in fact, a wonderful source for issues, personalities and the important things we need to consider at this time. It has been wonderfully put together and should serve as a model for the future.
