This is the Kind of Stuff I'm Concerned About : A Linkfest You May Not Want to Click On

by CKR

Libya's Inconvenient Truth (Washington Post)

Stonewalled by the C.I.A. (New York Times)

The Economy and the New Year (New York Times)

Drowning in Special-Interest Money (New York Times)

A promise of unpredictability (Los Angeles Times)

Is anyone listening? (Los Angeles Times)

And that's just from today's papers. Bleagh.

On the other side, a small note of encouragement from Moisés Naím. Can any of the candidates rise to that standard?
