...Maddow's patter naturally resonates most deeply with her fellow lefties. But just as liberals tuned in to Limbaugh for the sheer entertainment value of a great spieler reveling in his love of being on the radio, so conservatives can connect with Maddow's chipper intimacy, her skill at marshaling arguments without bullying the listener, her gift for sounding more or less middling to either side. Unlike many hosts on the radio and TV left and right, Maddow majors in common sense and shies away from conspiracy theories - though she did push the notion that Jeb Bush would be this...
...always know what that is, given that they lack the time to keep up with the latest drug journal articles, pore over research on the Web or attend medical conferences. One of doctors' most convenient sources of new-drug information is, therefore, also the most biased: the chipper, gift-laden pharmaceutical salespeople who come to doctors' offices bearing free samples, prescribing tips and copies of the latest study that shows how great their new drug is.

With an already surging John McCain coming off a respectable showing in Iowa...
...housebroken pre-frosh? Sentimental value is more than a cliché. Especially to college students who leave the College with nothing but their ratty futons and memories. We will not, cannot, and must not give in to Collegeboxes and HSA’s persistent e-mails or the frighteningly chipper customers in their advertisements. We must use our collective ingenuity and seek other means of storing our stuff. Perhaps we can use all of the empty shelf space in Widener Library now that so many books are archived by Google.
