  • The two Richard Cohens

    The Washington Post columnist recycles a stale debate from the Democratic primary, while the National Journal reporter previews possible problems for Democrats in Denver.
  • Dissing McCain

    The "Dr. No" comment suggests a candidate who is either disoriented, dispirited or just plain disconnected.
  • Gaming out November

    Team Obama lets allies on the left know what it needs them to do (not much) and what contingencies the campaign is anticipating for the Electoral College (all of them).
  • Stone cold buggin'

    I realize there is a buck to be made, but couldn't Oliver Stone wait until after the election to release his new film about the president?
  • Obama's bump

    Evidence from Gallup that Obama's world tour mattered most where it was supposed to -- at home.
  • The graying of Obama

    Maybe I am imagining things, but if his temples are any indication the junior senator is looking a little more senior lately.
  • Hillary on Tuesday, Tim or Jack on Wednesday?

    With Hillary likely to get the prime-time slot on Tuesday night at the Democratic convention, all that remains is the identity of Wednesday night's speaker.
  • Novak has tumor

    His history of aggressive driving notwithstanding, maybe there's more to the story of his hit-and-run last week.
  • Mitt Romney: Republican ATM machine

    If McCain passes over Pawlenty in favor of the former liberal Republican Mormon governor of Massachusetts it will be for two and only two reasons.
  • Introducing Tim Pawlenty?

    The New Republic's Noam Scheiber does Bob Novak one better in suggesting that McCain may make his veep pick this week -- and who it might be.
  • Affirmative distraction

    McCain was all over the place on affirmative action Sunday, but this is not an issue Obama wants moving front and center.

    Can the reactive Republican nominee effectively create voter resentment toward Obama?
  • Excited to be here

    A new blogger joins the battle in Salon's War Room.
  • A big November ahead for Senate Democrats

    Three experts tell Salon that the party may expand its Senate majority by half a dozen seats, but they also think at least one Democratic incumbent is vulnerable.
  • How big will Democratic gains be this fall?

    A panel of experts projects the number of seats Democrats will add in the House in November -- and which Democrats are most likely to lose their jobs.
  • The swing states of 2008

    Salon asks a round table of experts to predict where the presidential election will be won or lost. It's not just about Ohio anymore.
  • Why Obama should NOT pick Hillary Clinton as veep

    He would lose his claim to being the candidate of change -- and probably wouldn't get any swing states in return.
  • How Hillary Clinton botched the black vote

    Her failure to challenge Barack Obama's huge momentum among African-Americans -- not a given at the start -- may have doomed her campaign.
  • Memo to Clinton and Obama: Stop spinning

    Quit arguing about who would be more electable in November. You both have strengths -- and weaknesses -- on the electoral map against John McCain.
  • And then there were two

    In a highly anticipated showdown, Clinton and Obama duked it out, sort of, in a fight for the high road.
  • When principles aren't enough

    Like the poor people he talks about, John Edwards has been forgotten by a lot of Democrats. Is his next role to play king- or queenmaker for the party?

  • So long, white boy

    Could 2008 be the year that Democrats finally admit an old sweetheart is never coming back, and stop pandering to the white male voter?
