Elizabeth Warren: Bank Watchdog Who Belongs on Supreme Court
By Donna Trussell - Politics DailyOn Monday CNN reported that Elizabeth Warren, Harvard law professor and chair of the Congressional Oversight Panel for the Troubled Assets Relief Program (TARP), made the short list of nominees to replace Justice John Paul Stevens. What a difference a year makes. I called it here on Politics Daily last May, but back then I was dreaming more than predicting. ...

Is Dennis Kucinich Joining the Tea Party Movement?
By Donna Trussell - Politics DailyMy time-space continuum warped when I heard that Dennis Kucinich had talked to tea partiers and found common ground. After the Democratic defeat in Massachusetts last month, Kucinich said, "There's nothing liberal about the bailouts. There's nothing liberal about standing by and watching banks use public money to get their executive bonuses. There's nothing liberal about giving insurance companies carte blanche to charge anything they want for health care...Since when did that become liberal?" A lot of citizens who once stumped for Obama – for change and hope, they thought – feel ...
Jon Stewart and Bill O'Reilly Face-Off on Fox News (Video)
By David Sessions - Politics DailyOn Wednesday night's edition of "The O'Reilly Factor," late-night comic Jon Stewart sat down for a rare interview on the network he makes a business out of criticizing: Fox News Channel.

In a more serious tone, Stewart said he believed Obama had made progress in some areas, such as restoring order ...
Vanna White in the White House? How About Bruce?
By Donna Trussell - Politics DailyVanna White, the pleasant letter-turner on the game show Wheel of Fortune, was wildly popular in the mid-1980s. Some surmised that Vanna's appeal stemmed not from her blondness, but rather her blandness. Viewers saw either a girl next door or an irresistible, slightly dangerous hottie, depending on what they wanted to see. So my suggestion for 2012 presidential candidate is: Bruuuuuuce! Yes, Mr. Springsteen. The singer. Well, why not? ...

At War with The Daily Show Over 'Don't Ask/Don't Tell'
By Tommy Christopher - Politics DailyAt Friday's White House Press Briefing, I asked Press Secretary Robert Gibbs what I thought was an excellent question, and one which has garnered considerable attention from the blogosphere. Over the weekend, I found myself the recipient of heaps of gratitude from the LGBTQ community, a sad statement on the status of mainstream advocacy for gay equality.I also found myself the target of a rather dismissive accusation from Comedy Central's Indecision Forever, who thought that this question had a too-familiar ring to it:I wondering if you could describe the difference between the President's ...
