Mitt Romney as president would be a disaster for the country
I applaud Thomas F. Schaller's column on President Obama's modest background ("The virtues of a president with humble origins," Oct. 31).

MSNBC really is more partisan than Fox, according to Pew study
The Baltimore SunIn writing about the Pew study released today, I was struck by the big story of how negative coverage on several levels of presidential politics had become.

Obama has failed the nation

Romney-Ryan economic plan a disaster
The Romney/Ryan economic "plan" is like the hair-of-the-dog "cure" for a hangover: Have another drink! After the Bush administration tax cuts led us to the brink of a depression, Mitt Romney is proposing more of the same, with no credible strategy to...Tags: Ellicott City, Republican Party

Obama and the single girl
As if it weren't enough that Lena Dunham, the 26-year-old writing/directing/acting phenom who started a revolution this year with her HBO series "Girls," scored a $3.5-million book deal and has been granted the unofficial but unimpeachable title of "voice...
