Election Central Sunday Roundup
TPM Election Central —
... Barack Obama is holding a 2 p.m. ET press conference in Chicago, at which he will announce his pick of retired Gen. Eric Shinseki -- who was famously ridiculed by the Bush Administration after he accurately predicted in early 2003 that many more troops would be needed for the Iraq War -- to be Secretary of Veterans Affairs.

Buck Stops Where, Part II
DownWithTyranny! —
... Obama leveled with the public today about the economy. Do we just pat the crooked politicians and big-time crooks on the back, wish them well and move on? How about a recovery program? I mean they can't have spent all the billions they stole.

neo-Keynesian "investments" in deficit-funded infrastructure
projects that he called "down payments on the kind of long-term
sustainable growth that we need." It won't work. ...

Stop The ACLU —
... in chief, Obama? Has anyone seen an Alter sternly scolding Obama for “poor-mouthing” the economy? Has there been any hectoring from CNN over Obama’s grave warnings? Where is The New York Times beating up that downcast Obama? In fact, every single report I have seen about Obama’s talk on the economy has been matter of fact. Even sometimes giving him cover for changing his campaign rhetoric about the economy by asserting his acknowledgment that he has changed his tune. (such as MSNBCs recent coverage ) The New York Times went so far as to ...
