RUSSERT'S LOWEST MOMENT (AND THAT'S SAYING A LOT) — I discussed this in the live debate blog. But I think it's worth going back and watching Russert's run of shame here. I would say it was borderline to bring up the issue of Farrakhan at all. But perhaps since it's getting some media play …

Obama Blows his ‘Sister Soujah’ Moment — Clinton fights for children and families. — She fights for women's rights around the world. — She fights for health care. She fights for veterans' health care too. — After a year in the primary season, Hillary Clinton has found her theme: I'm a fighter.
Andrew Sullivan / The Daily Dish:
Live-Blogging Cleveland — 10.36 pm. Obama won it - quite easily. It was overwhelming before the final break. But decisive nonetheless. I can't see how she manages to rescue her campaign now. And his momentum will continue. It's over, right? — 10.29 pm. A nice classy semi-closer from Obama.
Duane R. Patterson / Townhall.com:
Hillary's Winning Ways Have Turned Into Whining Ways — Last week, Hillary Clinton waited until well into her debate with Barack Obama to utter the line of the night that cost her the debate. She had a scripted line to use about Barack Obama's change as being something you can Xerox, which fell flat and drew boos from the audience.

GOP Halts Effort to Retrieve White House E-Mails — After promising last year to search its computers for tens of thousands of e-mails sent by White House officials, the Republican National Committee has informed a House committee that it no longer plans to retrieve the communications …
Digby / Hullabaloo:
How Do We Defeat Tim Russert? — The country wants change. They want Washington to stop all the partisan bickering and they want a different tone. They want their government to be serious and deal with real problems. — Can someone please explain to me how that can possibly happen until something …

Tony Blankley / Real Clear Politics:
How to Beat Obama (Maybe) — Republicans owe Hillary our gratitude. She has road-tested several versions of attacks on Obama that don't work. Obviously, and first, don't come out against change and hope — the perennial themes of successful election campaigns.

Niall Stanage / New York Observer:
Panetta's Lament: They Had No Plan — The argument that the constant carping about Hillary Clinton's campaign has been a function of an Obama-friendly, process-obsessed media is well and good. But how, then, to explain the deeply held dissatisfaction of an old Clinton loyalist like Leon Panetta?

OBAMA'S POLICY TEAM. — Everyone is recommending Noam Scheiber's piece on Barack Obama's policy shop of pragmatists, and they're right, it's good. But I'm not sure I agree with it. In the economics section, for instance, Scheiber is sort of caught between wanting to make the larger claim …
