The F Word: Fighting Class War Fighting Bob Style
Obama spoke to a labor crowd in Milwaukee, Wisconsin on Monday, calling for new energy investment, and new infrastructure. The word most people want to hear from him, of course, is jobs. Where are they going to be, when are they coming back?

Bill Fletcher, Jr., Attack on Ahmed Sharif, and New Voters
President Obama might have declared the combat mission over in Iraq this week, but thousands of troops and contractors remain behind in that country and troops are still moving into Afghanistan. In his speech, Obama struck a note of conciliation with President Bush, and echoed a refrain that's grown familiar now: move forward, don't look back. But Bill Fletcher, Jr. notes that Iraq wasn't a case of a war gone bad with good intentions--it was begun illegally, and handled wrong from the start.

The F Word: Fight Tea Party Voters With Fresh Voters
Candidates have been in their districts, making nice to likely mid-term voters. They're more scarce than general election voters, and typically a more polarized bunch. What if there were more of them and more low-income people, particularly women, were in the mix?

Rebecca Traister & Hendrik Hertzberg: Pain & Politics
Every day, the story changes. Sarah Palin's the leader of the Republican party--except that she can't raise money. Eliot Spitzer is a disgrace (but has a TV show), and David Vitter can run for reelection on a "family values" platform. The NAACP wants the Tea Party movement to declare itself not racist, and suddenly the NAACP is racist. And we can't even get started on the BP disaster--mostly because BP won't let reporters near the scene of the crime.
