This is a great post from Boyd, regarding his work in Ohio, as well as Howard Wolfson's comments on the election being over...A very uplifting read.

I am recommending my own post not for the post itself, but for the comment I just added to it:

I think my comment speaks for itself.

Here is an open letter to John McCain from an AZ resident and former supporter. It's really good, not on TPM but I thought some others might like to read it.

Forgive me if it's poor etiquette to put a link to a non-tpm blog here.

I read the linked "open letter" to John McCain. Let me tell you that although the letter voiced some vey logical, well evidenced criticisms of McCain, it has a rather inhuman tone.

For a real person to have been so impressed by a very personal previous interchange with McCain and to then completely reverse their deeply held opinions about John McCain as a person, dutifully articulating nearly every Obama indignation at Jhn McCains inevitable, predictable backed into a corner, now or never political attack style of last resort seem eerily rehearsed.

If this was a phony letter - one that was written or coached by a politically active Obama supporter or even an anonymous person pretending to be an Obama supporter caught red handed. The rightwingers would have a field day exposing phony indignation.

All I'm saying is beware of posting links to unkown writers whose motives can't be verified, just ask Dan Rather what happens when you don't verify.
