http://overthrow.com/ Just heard Jesse quit the Reform party. Any ideas where the Reform party circus is going? Arianna Huffington ran a, to my view misleading column, last week. Sean Wilentz or some other TNR writer (btw, he was rumored to have been considered by Marty Peretz as in the running for a new editor a few months ago) had it right when he ran that hit piece in 1996 on Perot in TNR. The issues Perot brought to the table in 1992, have been absorbed by the two party octopus.

And on another track, now that ex-TNR editor, Charles Lane or is it Michael Lewis, (the nasty neo-con is the one I'm thinking of) is taking over at the Atlantic Monthly, is that rag gonna go neo-con? Will folks like Benjamin Schwarz get the boot? The success of U.S. policy in El Salvador -- preventing a guerrilla victory -- was based on 40,000 political murders by Benjamin Schwarz http://www.theatlantic.com/issues/98dec/elsalv.htm
