I particularly appreciated his admission of the least-reported part of the build up to the current economic collapse -- namely that big time political reporters like himself do not like nor know how to report on the economy. Even a large number of the economy beat reporters don't know anything more than what Paulson or Wall St. hacks hand them until something hits the fan.
It was an astonishing, candid confession from the D.C. pundocracy.
You are right. And coming from David it is quite astonishing and candid at the same time.
If there is anyone out there who still doubts that America is a place where all things are possible... ...who still questions the power of our democracy, tonight is your answer.
Broder speaks from the center, actually center-right . . . just not nearly as far right as the extremists.
Broder is a fan of bipartisanship. After the election he wrote that the old Washington group keep refighting the old fights of the 60s, "but Obama is blessedly unscarred by those battles . . . it is still an enormously hopeful moment for the nation -- a genuine new page".
It wouldn't surprise me if Broder had voted for Obama.
Broder: A closeted Obama supporter/voter.....I can dig it..lol

I wouldn't say Parker has been all that closeted about her support for Obama, at least in the last six weeks of the campaign.
She was one of the first high profile conservatives to publicly go all-out strong against Palin as underqualified, under curious, under reflective, under fit, and under complicated. No way was she voting Republican.
There had been some public grumbling about Palin in conservative circles before Parker let loose, but my recollection is that the deluge followed Parker's attack on Palin.
You are right. Even Peggy Noonan followed suit. I have to admit that these women most likely saw the rise of Sarah Palin as an insult and they had to say something...Kudos for them.
