Today's New York Times mines the inner recesses of DKos's psyche in a way that's so dead-on that I think they recruited their interviewees from here: Obama is up, and Fans Fear That Jinxes It.

Looking at DemfromCT's post about today's tracking poll and the InTrade and Iowa Electronic Markets rates got me curious about how the global betting market is handicapping the race. I'm not endorsing wagering (especially from the USA as online betting is illegal), but if you are willing to wade into the crazy futures markets, or happen to be outside of the US and are looking for the best Obama rates, follow me down...

So Hank Paulson yesterday admitted that no Wall Street bailout plan will pass without some sort of deal to limit executive pay for those who work for companies that participate in the deal.

"The American people are angry about executive compensation, and rightly so," he said. "No one understands pay for failure."

So what could this possibly mean? And how can this be structured so that it actually discourages bad behavior? Follow after the jump...

For the past two days, Republican pundits have been delighted at the prospect of the Obama / Biden team attacking Sarah Palin, because they believe that every sound argument that Obama can make against Palin has the potential to boomerang or generate female sympathy. But now we're getting a full understanding of how she was picked, and we are provided a damning indictment not of Palin, but of McCain. Follow down...

As a reminder, DelegateHub is a website paid for by the Clinton campaign that is designed to "educate" people on the delegate selection process.

http://www.delegatehub.com/

A few people diaried about it 2-3 weeks ago when it went up. I thought that it was going to be a flash-in-the-pan thing that would die as quickly as it was born, but the campaign is providing updates almost every work day. What's most interesting about these updates is that now they are virtually never about actual delegate counts or SD endorsements. DelegateHub has morphed into a pure anti-Obama site. The front page headlines tell the story...

1st ever diary entry, and this is a long shot to be sure since diaries will come & go quickly today, but I just got back from voting in Dem bastion Montclair, NJ and the polling places here need a huge amount of help. If you live in Essex County and have some free time today, this could be your little GOTV operation. Read More
