It's Their Party

Dems We Love
Rather than being a unifier, Mr. Obama has divided America on the basis of race, class and partisanship. Moreover, his cynical approach to governance has encouraged his allies to pursue a similar strategy of racially divisive politics on his behalf. (Patrick H. Caddell and Douglas E. Schoen, WSJ, 7/28/10)

Fat Cat Party
While Wall Street giving is down, Democrats are still outpacing Republicans. Overall, Wall Street has given $4.26 million to the DNC in the current cycle. Financial executives have donated just $870,000 to the Republican National Committee so far, less than 1% of the total raised. (WSJ, 7/29/10)

Walking It Back
President Barack Obama, mindful of business complaints about his administration, plans to review regulatory decisions to see whether there are "things that can be done in a more sensible way," his top aide said. (WSJ, 7/23/10)

Leahy Stonewalls
Senator Patrick Leahy is pouring cold water on a request by GOP Senators for public hearings into the Black Panther voter intimidation case, a move that will anger conservatives who were hoping for a public airing of the issue to prove the Obama administration is riddled with anti-white discrimination. (Greg Sargent, Washington Post, 7/29/10)
