From my Twitter feed:
–Chris Mooney on why scientists struggle to correct public misperceptions, and how they can do better
–A politician I can get behind: “Gnarr … ruled out any party whose members had not seen all five seasons of ‘The Wire.’”
–The best initial post on Weigelgate — read Conor Friedsdorf on the problems with the precedent that is being set
–CJR’s Greg Marx on the unsupported narrative of the oil spill taking down Obama’s approval ratings
-Kudos to NYT’s Michael Luo for a midterm elections story that is well-informed by political science
-How could requiring the disclosure of content of meetings between lobbyists and government officials possibly work? Disclosure requirements will always be circumvented.

-Classy DSCC fundraising appeal calls Carly Fiorina, Rand Paul, and Sharron Angle a “veritable ‘Axis of Palin’”
-Richard Cohen demands more demonstrative body language from Obama — another great use of WP op-ed space
–New study finds that 97% of the most active climate researchers believe in climate change caused by human activity
