  • Why it makes a sad sort of sense for Mitt Romney to campaign for John McCain, a man who plainly hates him.
  • Tom Scocca was on fire today. I look forward to his eventual senate campaign.
  • "Remember where you were, when you could still laugh about teabaggers and racists and Arizonans, because funny time is almost over."
  • Spencer Ackerman writes that Israel has staked its political future on the American evangelical right and business-friendly conservatives.
  • GOP bigwig Fred Malek counted Jews for Richard Nixon. This happened many years ago, and he has apologized. But Dave Weigel explains why it is still a big deal.
  • The Huffington Post has "cut ties" with its Washington Editor-at-Large, Hilary Rosen. Rosen, a Washington power-lobbyist, is currently doing crisis communications for BP. (Don't worry, Arianna says they still have a "great personal relationship.")
