Election PostPartum ... collecting the detritus and exorcising the space

A group of statistical geeks who made excellent sense out of the 3-4 times more polling done in this years election.

Obama's Victory Speech ... Change.gov is the rally the troops site for the transition and 2009 Congressional and Presidential Transition is the nuts and bolts "transparency" site

Do What You Got Elected to Do says the new Chief of Staff, R. Emanuel which is different that Our Emanuel, no? For those of you who are wondering about the stance of the new regime, this article should clear a lot of that up. In a word, pragmatic.

The Obama 30m Prime Time infomercial

Ralph Nader ... he of "fire in the belly" points out what is needed to move this on, rather than count on fait accompli ... oops repeat of previous post and link. Well it bears repeating.

And if you want to hear some VERY funny conservative breast-beating that is over half truthful and sets a lot of red and green harbour markers for the future, then P. J. O'Rourke is your guy.

A Harvard Economics professor gives some advice to Mr. O at the beginning.

Of course it will not stop at electing a black president, for the paranoid religious right this must be all too much. A transgendered mayor no less!
