Stephen Colbert and Glenn Beck
To use one of Dan Rather’s signature quotations: Scott Murphy’s lead is “as thin as turnip soup” in the NY-20 special congressional election.
Fortunately, Murphy, the Democratic candidate, has a big (Republican) family to support him (57 immediate family members!).
Tedisco, the Republican challenger, holds out hope in the 10,000 absentee ballots, but it doesn’t look good for national Republicans.
Obama hits London for the G-20 summit — bearing gifts!
Eric Holder, the attorney general, lets former Alaska Sen. Ted Stevens off the hook but keeps a tighter leash on the DOJ on the subject of DC voting rights.
Maybe the stimulus is starting to work? I’ll leave the details to our colleagues at The Bottom Line.
And Steven Colbert calls out Glenn Beck for being an idiot.

“Just as FOX News brought a new vision and voice to the media landscape in the 90s–fair and balanced reporting, plus strong debate and commentary—so FOX Nation will bring still more vision and voice in the decade to come.”
I’m so excited I’m shaking. Read more…
