The media seems to be doing its damnedest to help Barack out for tonight's debate: the front-page story of the New York Times looks like the gift-wrapped answer to the inevitable Rezko slur, while Good Morning America has video of Hillary Clinton sitting idly by on the board of Wal-Mart while the friendly megastore beat on unions.
It's not all good news for Obama, though—The Washington Times reports that his commitment to the incredibly stupid Drug War is not especially iron-clad. For me that's three wins for Obama, but as a dirty-hippie quasi-pacifistic vegetarian atheist I'm not the target audience for just about anything that happens in American politics.
