CNN poll questions Obama's patriotism  —  I've got to say, I've never seen a reader poll like this on a mainstream media website (or, to be honest, a right-wing blog).  This is currently on CNN.com.  —  And just today (in a very interesting exchange with the Cleveland Jewish community) …

Jonathan Alter / Newsweek:
Hillary Should Get Out Now  —  Clinton has only one shot—for Obama to trip up so badly that he disqualifies himself.  —  If Hillary Clinton wanted a graceful exit, she'd drop out now—before the March 4 Texas and Ohio primaries—and endorse Barack Obama.  This would be terrible for people …

Clinton Turns From Anger to Sarcasm  —  PROVIDENCE, R.I. - On Saturday, Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton showed her angry side, admonishing Senator Barack Obama for a campaign mailing that she called misleading.  —  On Sunday, before a rally of several thousand, she added a heavy dose of sarcasm.

In Painful Past, Hushed Worry About Obama  —  DALLAS — There is a hushed worry on the minds of many supporters of Senator Barack Obama, echoing in conversations from state to state, rally to rally: Will he be safe?  —  In Colorado, two sisters say they pray daily for his safety.
William Kristol / New York Times:
It's All About Him  —  Last October, a reporter asked Barack Obama why he had stopped wearing the American flag lapel pin that he, like many other public officials, had been sporting since soon after Sept. 11.  Obama could have responded that his new-found fashion minimalism was no big deal.
Andrew Sullivan / The Daily Dish:
The Clintons' Last Stand  —  Watching senator Clinton attempt to regain some lift as she paraglides into history is almost enough to evoke pity.  Almost.  The Clintons come with their own boundless reserves of self-pity so further reinforcements seem unnecessary to me.

Blogger, Sans Pajamas, Rakes Muck and a Prize  —  Of the many landmarks along a journalist's career, two are among those that stand out: winning an award and making the government back down.  Last week, Joshua Micah Marshall achieved both.  —  On Tuesday, it was announced that he had won …

David Freddoso / The Corner:
Obama and Pakistan  —  I've received a couple of e-mails along these lines: … My response is that as much as I appreciate the idea of a dead terrorist, I don't like what we did in Pakistan, and I really don't like the fact that we're bragging about it, or that a presidential candidate would openly discuss it as an option.

ElBaradei's Real Agenda  —  On Friday, International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Director General Mohamed ElBaradei submitted a report on Iran's nuclear program to the IAEA's Board of Governors.  It concluded that, barring “one major remaining issue relevant to the nature of Iran's nuclear programme” …
City Journal:
The Campus Rape Myth  —  The reality: bogus statistics, feminist victimology, and university-approved sex toys  —  It's a lonely job, working the phones at a college rape crisis center.  Day after day, you wait for the casualties to show up from the alleged campus rape epidemic—but no one calls.

Drudge Report:
CLINTON STAFFERS CIRCULATE ‘DRESSED’ OBAMA  —  With a week to go until the Texas and Ohio primaries, stressed Clinton staffers circulated a photo over the weekend of a “dressed” Barack Obama.  —  The photo, taken in 2006, shows the Democrat frontrunner fitted as a Somali Elder …
Michelle / Hot Air:
Hot Air embraces change  —  A few business items as we head into a new week at Hot Air:  —  1) It is with regret that I announce that Bryan Preston has left the company.  He has chosen to take a position as a producer with the Laura Ingraham radio show.  We thank him for all the time and talent …
Stuart Rothenberg / Real Clear Politics:
Obama's Appeal Depends on Your Definition of Change  —  Sen. Barack Obama (D-Ill.) continues to promise change and stress his ability to unite Americans.  It's a feel-good campaign built on soaring rhetoric and good intentions.  —  Pardon me if all of the fawning from the national media …
Fred Barnes / Weekly Standard:
Trading Places  —  The coalition party becomes the consensus party, and vice versa.  —  For decades, Democrats have been the coalition party.  They brought together groups of people who differed on ideology and in social status.  Republicans, at least since 1980, have been the consensus party.
