The Muddled Middle

This week’s “Wilshire and Washington” podcast from Variety is all about the political center, labels, and getting the tone of political discourse into a nicer zone.

Back to Bloggingheads! Bill and I tackle the debt limit, migraines and News Corp.

Great news! Next week, the lovely Maegan Carberry and I will jump start Variety’s “Wilshire and Washington” online radio show with Ted Johnson.  We took this picture together at the 2011 “Webutante Ball” on Tuesday night in New York (photo courtesy www.dianalevine.com)

Mitt's Moment

I wrote a piece last month for The Daily about how Mitt Romney had been doing all the right things in his efforts to court voters in his potential quest for the GOP nomination. Since then, he’s had some rough patches - most notably the tough Wall Street Journal editorial eviscerating his health care stance. I still think, however, that with an economic focus, Romney has a very potent strength to play to and is a very serious contender for the nomination.

Notes

This week’s BHTV subbed in Matt Lewis in the place of the usual Bill Scher.  In it, Matt and I break down the 2012 field and talk about the immigration issue.

I was in the UF Student Senate when President Reagan passed away.

This is the resolution I wrote that passed the UF Student Senate that summer. I found an old hard drive from my college laptop and have been trolling through the archives.  Upon finding this, I couldn’t help but smile.

I have a piece up at The Daily today about how no-drama Boehner pulled off a big victory in keeping the government open on Friday. The Daily is an iPad-only daily newspaper, and when I checked it out on the iPad I was very impressed with the sleek content presentation.  For 99 cents a week, I highly recommend it!

If only I’d stuck with my Russian language classes in college, maybe I could do Russian news in Russia. Alas, I’m suck with English. Thanks to RT for having me on with Kristine Frazao to talk shutdown, budget, and Obama’s campaign launch.

New PJTV Show!

Exciting news!  I’ll be co-hosting a new show for PJTV, a yet unnamed program featuring Amy Holmes and Katie Pavlich where we talk current events from a younger, fresher perspective.  

We’re all women, but don’t assume this show is a “women’s interest” program; I’ve long said that ALL issues are women’s issues. (Plus, would an “all guy” show be considered a “men’s political show”? No, it would just a be a “political show”. OK. Sorry. Getting off the soapbox now. Thanks for enduring.)

Notes

Bloggingheads.tv, where Bill and I talk Libya, Libya, Libya, and then shutdown, shutdown, shutdown.

I’m almost sad I’m off this week so I can’t come to the vociferous defense of Paul Ryan. Alas, I’m sure I’ll have a chance on the 15th instead.
