The United States is in a lost decade, or worse. But much of the loss results from the very policies Mr. Summers promulgated in the White House.
Over the course of four days in the nexus of Netroots Nation and RightOnline, one Huffington Post employee spent more time with the conservatives -- and nothing bad happened.
It is simple line between those who want to re-start the economy and those who do not, those who believe in an economic future and those who do not, those who recognize reality and those who are paid to lie.
If Republicans want to be the party of tomorrow, they will support Jon Huntsman. If they want to be the party of yesterday, they will support someone else. The choice is not mine.
It may very well be that in the process of ingratiating themselves with the groups they need to win the primaries, Republicans will damage their ability to compete in the November 2012 general election.

40 years ago today, President Nixon declared America's "War on Drugs," a failed war that continues to have a devastating impact on the lives of millions of Americans. On this day, let's work harder to end the madness of ineffective drug policies.

President Obama -- if you can't communicate a compelling narrative about the causes of the economic crisis and a plausible program to create jobs and economic growth, I'd keep an eye in the rear view mirror.
Remember when John King asked Herman Cain, "Deep Dish or Thin Crust?" Well that's the kind of information Republican voters need to know!
