REDUCTIO AD ABSURDUM  —  I don't know where it was.  It think it may have been a reader blog at TPMCafe.  Wherever it was it was a post that ran down something like ten different ways of counting the popular vote, all to the end of showing that Barack's popular vote lead wasn't nearly so great and may not exist at all.
Chris Kelly / The Huffington Post:
O'Reilly Attends Easter Services At Church Lead by Ex-Nazi  —  The Huffington Post has learned that Bill O'Reilly — who claims to love America — spent Sunday at a “church” run by a former Hitler Youth named Joseph Alois Ratzinger.  Ratzinger has gone to elaborate ends to hide this connection …

M Peretz / The New Republic:
Thoughts on Wright  —  I've just read Dayo Olopade's facsinating piece, “Far Wright,” on Barack Obama's far-left preacher, Jeremiah Wright.  It's an insightful piece, and it evoked memories of the two black churches I sometimes attended when I lived in Georgetown.  But I'm no expert and Dayo is.
