I don't want to get started on what I find infuriating about Chuck Todd, but I do want to point out what he pretends to forget about McAuliffe's margin of victory and what also runs contrary to the right-wing spin that the margin was cut by Cuccinelli's surge at the end. Republicans love the sound of the word "surge," don't they.

Is it just me or has everyone suddenly forgotten that as Attorney General, Cucinelli had some distinct advantages, such as his ordered purges? The last purge notice was sent out about one month before the election. There were 38,000 names on that one list alone, and there were three or four earlier ones. That's a lot of purging.

Peek beyond the squiggle, please.

The GOP demands to know why the ACA startup is problematic. They're scheduling hearings upon hearings, demanding that Secretary Sibelius be fired, and using every opportunity to call the law a "train wreck," a "catastrophe," etc. Of course, Republicans want to change the subject from their disastrous government shutdown, and it gives them a platform from which to continue to bash the ACA, so this represents a two-fer for them. This makes it just a-okay to create more obfuscation and tell more lies about the ACA.

If the truth were told, they - the GOP/Tea Party - are the reason why the startup is struggling, and Ezra Klein (Washington Post) nailed it this morning in his Wonkbook daily email. Follow me over the fold . . .

The qualifications of Sarah Palin to be Vice President are nothing but a red herring. The media's ongoing debate over her selection is superficial and, frankly, borders on malfeasance. Let's drop those only too obvious arguments and cut to the chase.

The ultimate danger was expressed best by Dan Conley:
