No, not the U.S. President. That would be President Chavez in Venezuela. Resonating with the Kos frontpage swipe at hippies and "anti-war" types (I wonder how comfortable Kos would be defending his chest-thumping position agains the likes of such principled anti-warriors as Howard Zinn, btw) the Chavez news has brought to the fore yet another center/left split here on DKos.

The split over Pie is no fluke, in fact, it represents an inevitable conflict that the election was able to somewhat smooth over as we allied against the Bushmonster.

But anyone with even a modicum of analytical skill could see what was going here all along - Dkos is a hasty conglomeration of leftists and liberals - radicals and moderates - whose main binding force is a negative one, hatred for Bush and the neo-cons.

At the core, we see that our views on certain issues are quite starkly opposed.

Unlike our useless national press, Patachon offers us some helpful historical context into the past experiences of the United States and the elections it has sponsored in it's Neo-colonial outposts.

However, should we fine tune our historical antennae just a wee bit, we see that the pattern begins a bit further back. See below, as the New York Times old timey archive once again offers some pearls to ponder. . . Read More

it's not blue and red anymore, that's done with. i never liked it anyways - blue is royal and capital and red is labor, why the hell did US newspapers have to turn it all "unideological" and shit? this new map reflects the feelings of many of us midwesterners, perhaps...

such is life, you win, you lose. and lose, and lose, and lose, and lose. or so it seems. but it ain't quite that way. and it sure ain't the fuck that way if you figure things out based on what cha see on TV. turn it off, the "news" at least, till jan. 22 at least. that's what i might try... or, well, maybe...

The "Vote for Change" tour is getting all the press, but that doesn't mean that other rockers aren't getting their politics on. At their 9.22.04 show in Nashville, Wilco frontman Jeff Tweedy really let 'er rip.

Not that anyone in the hackstream will dare use this to counter the prevailing narrative (think especially losers like Kaus who used Rasmussen to show how Kerry's previous lead was quickly melting away) --- but Rasmussen now shows a tied race, down to the tenth of a percentage point.

47.3 to 47.3
