(Sunday) Morning Hors D'oeuvres

Only 90 economists scraped together to sign McCain’s “Letter from 100 Economists.”

McCain finally repudiates some of the truly awful stuff happening.

It seems like every time Nate writes a weekend post about the candidates’ competing ground games in a swing state, Obama has 8 kajillion open, bustling offices and McCain’s only office is closed with two little old ladies loitering outside. This makes me think landslide.

Ben picks up on the Palin-Flyers debacle. The video he links to might exhibit even louder booing than the one we have.

The NYTimes has the GOP getting shaky about McCain.

TIME calls the troopergate affair evidence that Palin’s administration is and was “shockingly amateurish.”

TPM makes a good point … McCain supporters seem genuinely surprised that McCain doesn’t think Obama is a terrorist. Also, there doesn’t seem to be any reason left to vote for McCain.

Hopefully this back and forth will mark an end to the most hate-filled stuff.

Ta-Nehisi has some good, yet scary context on what Wallace was really thinking.
