Cambridge is lucky to have such a dedicated and supportive police department.

I can't count how many times I've heard "I will never vote for him again" among my inner circle.

Obama's only hope is to cater to moderates. No self-respecting liberal will bother with him.

He's got both ends of the spectrum pissed at him. He's a one term wonder.

Liberals aren't happy with him because he's not spending enough or getting as hard core as they want on taxing the rich to death, taking over healthcare, pulling out of Iraq, or cracking down on environmental taxes. Conservatives aren't happy with him because he's a left wing tax and spend liberal who leans towards huge government, and his foreign policy harkens back to the Jimmy Carter era.

He better hope he can capture a huge amount of centrists and get his left leaning base to hold their noses. If he gets a serious primary challenge from the far left, he's done.
