Hey, we
hear there's a primary today. Seems like as good a time as any to catch up on
TNR's recent campaign coverage--there's Jon Chait's piece (now free to all!) on how Obama liberates Democrats from the Clinton's siege mentality;
there's John Judis's CW-moving article, from mid-December, on how Latino voters
could save Hillary's campaign; and there's David Kusnet, Bill Clinton's former
speechwriter, on the perils John McCain will face in the general. There's also much more. To paraphrase
P. Diddy, Read Or Die.

aftermath of the South Carolina
primary.
