The Mahablog: The DOJ’s antitrust action against four automakers is a twofer for Trump. It advances his anti-regulatory climate change denialism while punishing California.
The Progressive Pulse: A look into the documents left behind by the GOP’s Gerrymanderer-in-Chief.

Speaking of which, your quote of the day:
"I'm sure I'm not the only male in America who, when Palin dropped her first wink, sat up a little straighter on the couch and said, ‘Hey, I think she just winked at me.’ And her smile. By the end, when she clearly knew she was doing well, it was so sparkling it was almost mesmerizing. It sent little starbursts through the screen and ricocheting around the living rooms of America." (Rich Lowry, on the Vice Presidential Debate, October 3, 2008)
